I saw this once on brad-majors, but wasn't able to reproduce it.
Some detective work shows nothing on Sunsolve, but my spies at CMU
say this doesn't happen on their SunBlade 100s. They're using kernel
patch 108528-08; we're using 108528-03, which is genuinely ancient.
I'm not sure if it would help, but it seems a reasonable step.
Greg, would it be possible to get the most recent kernel, Xsun, ifb,
and GL patches into 9.0 before we go public?
