Well, since I can't really test, I don't know. This problem has happened
just once in the couple of weeks I've used that machine, and I wasn't even
doing anything strange when it triggered (no heavy IO, no special
programs, no nothing - I was literally just reading email and I think
trying to browse over to news.com or something..)
So I was more hoping that you'd say that it's a known issue, and already
fixed, or that the status bits would give you some clue and make you say
"Ahh, we don't handle that case". I have nothing to "test". The thing
seems to work, and I have no known way to trigger the problem...

Hmm. That sounds like it should just affect the bootup identification,
which has always worked fine for me. Would it fix the softreset too?
Anyway, I can certainly try yout current "upstream" branch, but as
mentioned, the standard kernel works fine for me generally, so I don't
really know what I can offer (except if "upstream" simply doesn't work at
all, in which case I'll certainly let you know ;)
