Hopefully, the driver architectute in Leopard cleans up all the crazy anomolies like this - ie incomplete enmeration of use-cases (of course these ever-gowing loose threads represent the price appple pays for not using UML for design and SDL for testing!). or more precisely, a user-level command to OVER-RIDE the 'protection' apple (forcibly) offers to users from 'accidently' making hardware 'errors'.
