This could be relevant -- this machine is all-SCSI, and my previous
machine used SCSI except for the CD-ROM.

Also, the USB mass-storage driver may be installed, although no
devices are connected (so may not be relevant).

Last time I looked, there weren't any drivers for Adaptec SCSI cards
in Haiku -- is this still the case?
If so, that might leave only the SCSI-like interfaces (AHCI, USB, ?)
as potential triggers for this problem in Haiku.

Still not actually sure what tracker_taskloop is intended to do
though -- it's clearly a thread running a polling loop (!!!) of some
kind, yet it doesn't seem to affect much when the thread is killed?
