I was thinking about this problem when writing the TDMA MAC.  I like the 
rollover flag idea much better than the assumption everything will be 
transmitted.  It's very easy for the host to detect and set a bit like 
this.  The host is generating the timestamps, and can easily tell 
something like this.

But, I'd say lets take care of the RX issue first...
