I can reliably crash the CVS version I have (gtk 0.582, libardour 0.882)
by using the MMC Fwd control on my BCF2000.  It starts playing at a 
speeded-up rate, then freezes completely.  I have to kill -9 the ardour
process.  There's a small window that pops up when it freezes, but says
nothing in it.

I have successfully mapped a knob to an Ardour panner, but am unable to
map rec-enable, solo or mute to any of the buttons, which are sending
Program Change values.  When I do the ctrl-middleclick, I get the "operate
MIDI controller now" message and it goes away when I hit the button, which
tells me that it's getting the signal, but Ardour doesn't respond to the
control.  I'm still trying to troubleshoot this to see if it's something
on my end, but the fader and panner works extremely well.
