Hi folks, just an update on this matter. Lorenzo needed to change his system setup after some problems. We are in contact and expect to conduct further testing soon (hopefully the bug will reappear).
Even better news is that I have been able to reproduce the bug 4 times in my lab today. It's not as easy as I would hope, but at least I can get results with some patience. I am also experimenting a bit with Twitter and actually found it useful to keep track of the troubleshooting process. Those of your interested can follow it at http://twitter.com/rgerhards I don't promise (yet) to keep it current at all times, but I will use it during the troubleshooting effort.
