There's a consistent but random hang in station mode. I've reproduced
it five times at this point - the serial console hangs and the
heartbeat LED gets stuck on. There aren't any errors leading up to the
hang.

Here's the last lines of dmesg that printed before the hang:

Unfortunately, this is from `dmesg -w` and not directly from the
serial console - I think I'll have to recompile the kernel again to
get these debug messages to show up on the serial console, and I'm not
sure what will happen when the message rate exceeds the speed of the
serial connection.

Is this likely a separate issue? Should I see if I can get GDB set up
over JTAG and dump the message buffers after the lockup?
