I'm not questioning that you haven't seen that error in F17, but we have
had quite a few bug reports with similar error messages for a while now.
Apparently there are lots of ways GPUs can get hung, so they might be
different from what you're seeing.  Just wanted to point out that it
might not be a new 3.8 change that caused it.
