If you had two cards handled by the wct4xxp driver in a system, and one 
was providing timing to the other via a timing cable, there were some 
conditions that could cause the slave card to loose timing sync prior to 
this patch.

And yes...this could be applied to earlier versions (although to my 
knowledge, there will never be another release of Zaptel...at best it 
would just need to sit in trunk).
