I havent seen the other stuff, but I have caught it hanging w/ two DBSRX
installed. Me thinks it is the FX2 not returning from an I2C
transaction. As soon as I thought I could reliably reproduce the problem
murphy's law kicked in and I hadnt seen it again. This should be fun to

I cant test it now, but can you can try this reverse diff of the
changeset and see if that works?
