I really don't believe that he needs to have a system onhand to
reproduce the problem.  I had a serial console setup, he could have
provided whatever debug code needed to debug it further.  We're
talking open source code here, so its not like he couldn't have worked
with me for a solution.

If he didn't have the time, he should have just said so.  I could
accept that.  But ignoring me is unproffessional behavior.
