I think that the problem is that we have an infinite recursion that is
trashing the stack.

This is happening in hwpath_to_device() which is called by
pdcspath_fetch(). hwpath_to_device tranverses the device tree. It looks
like it recurses forever, eventually filling up the stack and trashing
stuff.

Not yet sure why, nor do I really understand how the device tree
iterators work. Perhaps somebody else who understands this better will
be able to fix it quickly ;-)
