First, revert this one :

It will put you back to the state where all your machines hanged at boot
with -hf32.5, then revert this one :

And you will have something equivalent to -hf32.6 (you remember, I only
reverted the fix in -hf32.6, and did not merge Marcelo's fix for the fix).
Then we will have to decide whether we can fix it again or revert it
completely. I would have liked to Cc: Vadim Egorov, but I cannot find his
email.
