So far, I seem to have a 100% success rate in resuming with my silly
hack, whist your DT patch alone only gives me a 50% rate at best.

I cannot say for sure that the hogs are the issue. But I thought that
they were the only pins affected by 981ed1bfbc6c... If this patch can
affect other pins, then I'm probably barking up the wrong tree.
