Btw, crossover being screwed up and runnign with RT priority would also explain why stracing it makes the problem go away - the tracing will cause the RT process to halt at system calls and yield to the tracer, which isn't RT.
Of course, the same goes for a scheduler bug, so it's not like this proves anything one way or the other, but considering that others aren't reporting this problem with other programs..
