That particular link is actually running in ePTP mode, and I haven't seen
any issues with it hanging... I wonder if that bug doesn't affect the GPS
radios? I don't think I have any of our other links in ePTP mode.

We've done several links using a PTP at one end and a normal connectorized
radio at the other end. I haven't ever seen an ePMP link do enough over 100
meg for me to care about having a gigabit port.
You can run the PTP radios off passive power too, they're probably the
least picky about power of any radios I've used - you can even run them
directly off a UBNT power supply.
