That is, http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1310
I've been waiting for the followup from Nicolas: dmesg logs,
with CONFIG_USB_DEBUG, showing this failure on a current kernel.
(And likely also usb-storage VERBOSE debug...)
If I don't see such information soon, I'll just reject that bug
for insufficient data; it's been missing for nearly two weeks,
clearly this bug was mis-prioritized.

I couldn't find any evidence of such a thing though.
If it existed, it never made it into bugtraq.

The bugzilla entry is actually pretty useless. Where's the
"scenario" data showing there even _is_ a failure case?
(Leaving aside "how/why does it happen"...)

The convention for bug reports is to describe the failure mode
in some detail. What this one has is detail for success modes.
The logical conclusion is that there is no bug ...
