Hi all, my first contribution. I checked code style, patch submission 
rules and did a manual test (details on request)

Synopsis:
It's a corner case, where a segfault occurs when logging Sparc CPU state 
in a partially initialized state.

No related bug report.

Open to harsh criticism ;-)

Regards,

Henk van der Laak <henk@laaksoft.nl>

How do we arrive here with a partially initialized state?

Gotcha.  I'd forgotten that -d cpu_reset exists.

Of course the logging happens before the superclass reset even starts, much less finishes.
I guess the logging should happen in the exit phase, not the hold phase.
