I said in an earlier reply that I see the same bug even when connected
to /dev/lp0, the parallel port.

Just to make sure, I tried my simple1/simple2 tests on the machine 
with the parallel port, and the bug did not appear.

So you may be right about the usb problem after all. Apologies for
the initial hasty response.

The bug system seems to have reversed the order of a couple of my
reports (the timestamps are correct, but do not match the order).
That makes it a bit confusing to follow my simple* tests on the
webpage.

I hope that I will have time to investigate further in the next day
or so...
