ncpfs lockups

Greetings

I've been getting random ncpfs lockups on my Linux 2.0.27 box for a
rather long time now. I used a patch posted on a newsgroup (reportedly by
the original author), and the lockups got more scarce, but they still
happen. (Oh, I also installed ipxd in the middle of all that.) IPX
networking itself doesn't hang (slist works etc), and when I do a
ipx_interface delall I can umount the locked up filesystems and remount
them fine. It's still rather annoying.

The question is, is this a known bug, and is there any cure for it? If
not, what info is needed so that it could be fixed?
