First of all, 

I can verify that this problem still occurs with the May 30 kernel, since 
it is still happening to my Q40S.  It is highly non-deterministic.  I 
also have inhibit_sync disabled. 

Does anybody else run a Quantum drive and not have this problem?  Do you 
have inhibit_sync set or cleared?

I may take a poke at this problem this weekend if I can figure out why 
the blitter now keeps going wild on me. 8^)
