I've adopted a wait-and-see with 2145 as to whether or not this issue has been resolved. Once I get some tuits I'll see if there's a way I can log the output at boot time, possibly with a null-modem cable or something, to another box, so I can generate a better bug report for this issue, but in the meantime I have work that needs to get done.
