Yes. I don't think I've tested the very latest kernel package (the one that
came out a couple of days ago), but the one before that had this happen.
It doesn't seem to happen all the time. In the past it had seemed to happen
every time (but perhaps I had just got unlucky), now it seems to fail to halt
about 70% of the time.
