Comment (by warp):

 On jg's lockup.  It is possible that this may have been the (now fixed)
 race condition in the GS to PT switch.

 That would have left the touchpad in PT mode, with no indication that this
 was the case.

 Reproduction would involve a build prior to the fix entering the kernel,
 and a very brief contact with a fingernail or other object that would have
 been detected as a stylus.

 My inclination is to close this and open a new bug if it shows up again on
 a kernel with the GS to PT switch race fix present.  Jim?
