My schedule is full. I'm tracking all changes going into HEAD at least. There 
are some deltas that could have been backported, but I do not specifically 
keep track of all the small things I fix. I would need a secretary for 
that :-) Any volunteers ;-)

With regard to the topic of this thread I know about some specific issues that 
leaves the result that attached devices are not detected. This is related to 
missed PCD interrupts. You have to fake a PCD interrupt every time you enable 
the PCD again, to catch any missed PCD interrupts. The problem is the same 
with OHCI, but there this interrupt is called something else. The PCD 
interrupt is connected to the root interrupt endpoint on the root HUB, which 
is a virtual device. I think that this is the problem.
