Hello,
As far as I can tell, the ticket would not affect ccw anymore. Even more: had I been aware of this issue with some hardware, at that time, I would have refrained myself from suggesting it. Should the problem arise again, I would look for another work around than forcing hardware sync on each file.
TBH, I even feel a little bit culprit for having (inadvertently) introduced this issue into the clojure compiler.
