Nope... didn't mean to imply that - sorry, my mind went off at a 
tangent :) This was the subject of some debate at ARM, where the 
standard watchdog peripheral kicked a reset if two consecutive 
interrupts generated by the watchdog timer were not serviced. Unless 
there was some additional interaction with the application code, it 
could entirely fail to detect a locked system.

Very cunning - I like it! I did have some implementation 
observations/questions but I can see I'm going way off-topic ;)
