Yes, to me as well it sounds like the PMU is unhappy
because you didn't talk to it for too long while
things are hot. Pretty hard to prove this assumption
of course -- but try Gabriel's suggestion, if that
works, it means this diagnosis is at least slightly
correct. A real fix is something different of course.
