The check that is done seems correct to me: "The SUM (permit Supervisor 
User Memory access) bit modifies the privilege with which S-mode loads 
and stores access virtual memory.  *When SUM=0, S-mode memory accesses 
to pages that are accessible by U-mode (U=1 in Figure 4.15) will fault*. 
  When SUM=1, these accesses are permitted.SUM  has  no  effect  when 
page-based  virtual  memory  is  not  in  effect".

I will try to reproduce the problem locally.

Thanks,

Alex
