+         Replace LPC11U14 SPI driver with non-interrupt version. The
+         interrupt code would occasionally wedge on long transfers
+         if interrupts were blocked for too long. This affects all
+         released TeleGPS products; if you have a TeleGPS device,
+         you'll want to reflash the firmware.
