Somehow it appears that our PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA-1 kernels are less
susceptible (or even not susceptible) to ASIC hangs. %-)  I just
realized that even with MSCash2, the kernel running time is about 800 ms
with default GWS on 7970 - yet we were able to successfully use it in
last year's Crack Me If You Can.

dmg-opencl is now running at 1599 c/s and GWS=81920 for over an hour,
and there's still no hang.

So maybe there's something in those kernels that avoids the problem.
