Yeah, I tested where with PAL/M and 64-bits, but I don't think that the hangs
have something due to 64 bits. It is probably because of the high delay introduced
by using the 100 Mbps Ethernet connection to display the stream. This introduces
a high delay (the max frame rate drops from 30 fps to about 6 fps on my setup).
So, qv4l2 will loose frames. This increases the possibility of a race between
qbuf/dqbuf.

Cheers,
Mauro
