Oh yeah, this is really fun.  The fact that it has improved in 10/8
should be a clue but so far I'm to dense to figure out the clue.

Anyway, I'd be deliriously happy if I could see it fail even once.

I don't expect it to have changed in the 10/10 snapshot unless Corinna's
changes did something, which is doubtful since she wasn't trying to fix
this problem.

Corinna sent me a gdb trace of a process in this state but it wasn't
useful, unfortunately.

I'm thinking of buying a new computer to test this.  Mine are obviously
charmed.
