The mpt f/w assigns tags. Don't really know what happened here.

> Also, is CAM doing the right thing by retrying?  scsi_error_action() in cam/scsi/scsi_all.c always sets the retry bit on aborted commands, even though the spec quoted above makes it sound like this should be a fatal error ("This is considered a catastrophic failure on the part of the SCSI initiator device").  Should scsi_error_action() be looking at the Additional Sense Code?

Not really, IMO.  It's up to each periph driver to decide whether 
commands are statefull or can be retried with impunity.
