  Log:
  In cpu_reset(), call OF_reboot() instead of OF_exit(). The latter
  doesn't do a reboot and has been observed to reset the NVRAM to its
  default values.

Ooo.  Could this cause an 'nvalias' to disappear?

I don't know. I only observed that the environment was reset and I
had to fix the console and boot settings again.

  I keep trying to
store away some long device aliases in nvram on my Mac Mini, and it
it seems like they always just disappear on me.  I haven't tried to
do any alternatives with the 'nvedit' command yet, as I assume those
attempts would hit the same fate.

Do you typically use shutdown -h? There's a use of OF_exit() in cpu_halt() still. I only changed the cpu_reset() case, which is called from DDB when
you enter reset for example.
