When I did the RELENG_4 update with the security patch in it to this 
system (topaz) with USB on it, the boot died with the latest 
4.9-prefelease. It also completely hung my kvm switch. That happens 
occasionally but had never been caused by topaz before. My gateway 
computer is not having any problems with the same code.

I will go back when it is quiet and see where the boot stops.
