You have to pay really good attention to specs on some linear regulators,
they are unstable in the weirdest places in the loadmap.

For instance, many regulators really want a specific minimum load, and
if you don't for just a nanosecond, they'll do a hissy fit.

A shunt resistor to ground often solves that, at the cost of 10-20mA.
