Bug Description
A user can construct a script to crash HAL anytime it emits a device addition or removal signal.
The script calls back to HAL requesting further information while it's already in a signal.

Look at the header of this script for how it works. But, put simply:
1. Run it.
2. Insert or remove something hotpluggable.
3. Marvel as HAL dies.
