Sure, but if the yield diff makes it more likely to trigger and reduces 
the frustration of those trying to track it down, then that's a Good 
Thing.  I left a box in a loop for hours building stuff and starting and 
killing chrome and firefox and didn't hit it...even though I've hit it at 
boot, when starting chrome, and at semi-random other times.  I'm going to 
throw the yield patch onto the box and try again...
