 For a few days now, I've had repeated freezes of my NetBSD/Alpha
 system running fresh -current kernels (userland hasn't had time to
 catch up yet)

 That is, the serial console spits out

  isp0: I/O while blocked

 so fast that it gets it wrong, missing newlines and question marks
 all over. I can't break the system into kernel debugger either,
 it appears.

 Did my QLA1080 go mad, or did something happen software-wise?
 Here's the dmesg
