Apparently the issue can be addressed in software.  No details on how

With information provided by Intel, BSDI has developed a workaround
for this problem.  A beta version of the mod for BSD/OS version 3.1
is now available for testing from

        ftp://ftp.bsdi.com/bsdi/patches/patches-3.1/M310-hangfix


There's nothing there but a message saying the patch is unavailable.
Back to square one.
