I submitted one already. My AW51G would not reboot properly without a
'boot -r' because the GCIO driver did not get along with the hotplug
subsystem. The X server would not start because something happened with
the mouse and keyboard devices (I'm guessing S99FOXBORO moving them to new
locations), and the 'boot -r' was required to remake them, or put them
back to their virgin state, or something, I'm not really sure. I disabled
the CGIO on a hunch, as I described, and the problem went away.
Though TAC could not reproduce the problem, they advised against
unplugging the keyboard or mouse. Supposedly there's a "quick custom"
(whtever that is) to fix this; they were supposed to schedule an
installation appointment with our field service engineer. I don't know if
it also allows dual pointing-device use.

I suppose its time for a CAR.
