I think this is the right list. At the least, I read this one far
more than -users, and I'm likely to be the only person who knows some
of this stuff, unfortunately.

Um, that's pretty strange, and I don't really know what could be
causing it. I've certainly never heard of anything like it.
Each provider class should be completely independent, and there's no
way that flushing one should cause another not to get flushed.
Are you saying that the changes don't get logged, or that they don't
happen? If they don't even get logged, do you get anything
informative if you run with --verbose --evaltrace?
