It appears that RTH has a patch for this.  I am bootstrapping it on 
mipsel-linux right now.  Unfortunately my hardware is quite slow, so I 
will not know the results for another 28 hours or so.

I think the cause of the failure is understood and I am optimistic that 
RTH's patch will solve this problem.  In any event people are actively 
working towards a solution, so the 48 hour clock would seem to no longer 
be necessary.

Thanks,
