I'm trying to get there (have the watchdog to fire), but I'm very 
disappointed (well, not really): the thing just keeps running!

But yeah, that's a relevant warning, no one should use cpufreq in 
production and expect the pxa cpu to not go crazy and start killing all 
the pets around and stuff like that.

It's better to be on the safer side, but, hey, I only do sports 
(rafting) once or twice a year, the rest of the time the adventurous in 
me has to find something a little risky to do :-)
