sascha confirmed on IRC that the above refers to XO-1.5 (and is
good news on that front, of course).  but bernie's referring to
XO-1 behavior.  i've been looking at the XO-1 issues recently,
and my progress has been investigative, without a lot of actual
discovery. :-)  i think there are several issues, at least a
couple of which have to do with races between suspend/resume and
other driver activity.  (e.g.  #10176)
