Not that I know of; I don't know what those things are.

I have not had a freeze for several days. The freezes I've had
show no correlation with anything that I'm doing, so I don't
want to file a bug report.

One could suspect hardware failure, but the freezes only happen
to kicker, nothing else.

Maybe this is one of those problems that an `emerge world' will
fix at some point.

Thanks for your reply, by the way.
