Hi Gonzalo--

I'm not aware of the status of this bug, but have CC'd Stanislav  
Sedov, who has recently been working on other known if_bge issues for  
8.0. At this point things are pretty late in the cycle, and device  
driver modifications (especially for sensitive drivers such as bge)  
represent a significant risk, so things may not change; however,  
perhaps he has some thoughts along these lines?

Thanks,

Robert
