Roland just submitted a patch in this area yesterday.  I don't know if the patch
would fix their issue, but it may be worth trying.  What kernel does 1.4.2 map
to?

What RMPP messages does ibnetdiscover use?  If the program is completing
successfully, there may be a different race with the rmpp cleanup.  I'll see if
anything else stands out in that area.
