Does that mean that the hang on reset problem that both of the
TS-7800s we've tested has been well and truly fixed?

I ask because I had strange behaviors after using ts7800ctl -f to try
out the watchdog.  Sometimes it just hung, other times I could do some
commands (like ls (but only in the current directory) and date) but
not many.  I believe Technologic told us there was a problem with the
reset pin usage on the TS-7800 (or something similar to that) and the
watchdog needed that to work correctly to do its job.
