This has been reported before.


No one has gotten us a sane stack traceback from the code.

The HBFIFO code is VERY VERY simple.  It hasn't changed.  Read a packet 
from the FIFO, write it to a message queue.

It only crashes on certain 2.6 kernels - and on no other platform - not 
on FreeBSD, not on any other kernels.

I kind of doubt that this is our bug.  Of course, it still needs fixing.

But, if it's our problem, we need a stack traceback from the process in 
question.

Does this happen with 2.0.0?
