Hi Ben (either or both :-),
OK, I've narrowed it down a bit. I'm enclosing a diff between a working
ieee1394 CVS checkout from "26 Feb 2002 12:00" and a broken CVS checkout
from "27 Feb 2002 12:00". I'm wondering if it could be a data alignment
issue but since I'm not at all familiar with this code, I'll let the experts
check out the diff to see if anything pops out at anyone, especially if
there's anything that might be problematic for PPC.
-Thanks
-Bill
