Sorry if I sounded a bit harsh, but I'm actually mining using your software and I have no problems at all. I'm using this revision:
https://github.com/siklon/cpuminer-gc3355/tree/12b54ffff5dea7941fdf096bb66e2955b00f90b5
I did a quick diff with latest version and I can't find any change that might have break it.
I'm compiling now the latest version and will debug in both ends (miner and pool) to get some more info.
I don't mean no disrespect, but this my conclusion based on what I see from the stratum logs. 1 hour passed and no new block reported from stratum server, meanwhile there are tons of rejects like "unknown-work" each time a new job is issued and the GC3355 is still solving the previous job. It's only logical that the pool discards the old jobs when a new block is detected, so unless the stratum protocol changed, this is a failure from the pool.
How it should look:

That's quite a statement. Pool runs fine for everyone else and the conclusion is that we don't report new blocks on the network... 
The pool doesn't report new blocks at all (WTF?), so of course cpuminer sticks with the old work. I would suggest that you try a different pool.
When I run with 0.9c I do get "Stratum detected new block" messages in the log, if that is what you mean (same pool).
Are you sure? The code regarding "Stratum detected new block" message hasn't changed.
When the pool detects a new block, stratum.job.clean is set to true.

I appreciate what you are saying but in answer to your question yes I am sure, here's a screenshot from 0.9c where the message "Stratum detected new block" can be seen:
http://i.snag.gy/jOzeL.jpg
I just tested the pool on v0.9d and it occasionally reports new blocks, so it's not related to cpuminer.

I've only been running it for a little while but 0.9e seems to be giving the same problems as 0.9d, for me (Windows version). i.e. too many rejects with message "DEBUG: reject reason: unknown-work". Who here on Windows is or is not having the same issue? I've gone back to using 0.9c, again - its working fantastic. Sandor do you think this issue is likely to be specific to my setup? You are the magic jesus of mining and I look forward to your reply. 
In 0.9d, new work is sent when there is a new job and after a nonce is found, in 0.9c it would stop hashing immediately and send the new work. The latter is actually inefficient and slows down the mining.
Could you post a log with --debug and --protocol option enabled?
Personally I'm still getting 0.2% rejects whatever the pool I go with.
Sure thing. Just add --debug and --protocol-dump to my bat file? I assume it will output the debug dump into a file in the same directory. How long should I run it for to produce something useful. An hour? I'll do it tomorrow its 3am here and I need to collapse.
Sandor I can't see that the debug/log is being stored anywhere just printed to the screen? Rejects still seem high for me in your Windows build from today of 0.9e (A:306 R:36 H:0 over 60mins). Here is an excerpt from the log when some errors occured. Does this shed any light?

The pool doesn't report new blocks at all (WTF?), so of course cpuminer sticks with the old work. I would suggest that you try a different pool.
When I run with 0.9c I do get "Stratum detected new block" messages in the log, if that is what you mean (same pool).
I've only been running it for a little while but 0.9e seems to be giving the same problems as 0.9d, for me (Windows version). i.e. too many rejects with message "DEBUG: reject reason: unknown-work". Who here on Windows is or is not having the same issue? I've gone back to using 0.9c, again - its working fantastic. Sandor do you think this issue is likely to be specific to my setup? You are the magic jesus of mining and I look forward to your reply.
In 0.9d, new work is sent when there is a new job and after a nonce is found, in 0.9c it would stop hashing immediately and send the new work. The latter is actually inefficient and slows down the mining.
Could you post a log with --debug and --protocol option enabled?
Personally I'm still getting 0.2% rejects whatever the pool I go with.
Sure thing. Just add --debug and --protocol-dump to my bat file? I assume it will output the debug dump into a file in the same directory. How long should I run it for to produce something useful. An hour? I'll do it tomorrow its 3am here and I need to collapse.
Sandor I can't see that the debug/log is being stored anywhere just printed to the screen? Rejects still seem high for me in your Windows build from today of 0.9e (A:306 R:36 H:0 over 60mins). Here is an excerpt from the log when some errors occured. Does this shed any light?

Sandor111, is there a way in the batch file that you can specify a frequency for GDS 0 and another for GDS 1? Or do they both have to be the same?
thx
thx
Sure, look in my signature for examples on that.
Just curious, On a Raspberry Pi do the device names stay constant across reboots?
They stay constant.
You don't say... I was curious about this but haven't paid enough attention across reboots and reconfigs. Knowing this I may have to move the 5-chips to a multicoin pool or something for better diff.

They stay constant.
0.9e ran just fine overnight. Notice that the 5-chips are quirkier than the blades in terms of performance, but it could also be that I'm on a pool with a fixed [higher] difficulty. Otherwise performance is consistent across all devices and hashrate has been the highest sustained ever on these things.
Now I just gotta figure out what ZoomHash is doing about the insane price drop while my order was in processing and we'll be in business.

Hi sandor,
I don't know if anyone else has this issue but on this version, when checked the miners this morning
they were like super super hot! something that never happened before at same frequency settings

I just checked the power meter, and it is still at ~7W/unit, cool to the touch. Probably the effect of overvolting?

The freezing problem seems to have something to do.with the autotune feature. When enabled, it freezes every 2 hours or so everytime. When I disable it, now it has been running fine for 12 hours.
That's because the the autotune features prints a line immediately after another, so it's more likely to deadlock (tui_lock).
Do you still experience freezing even with v0.9a? It should be a thing of the past now.
Looks like "--freq=950" overrides the "--gc3355-freq=\\.\COM42:700"
How could i set one device lower/higher than all the rest without typing each individually?
Edit: OK. I got it. I needed to write individual freq before the overall.

I'm pretty sure it's not the case. The most specific frequency is always applied.
Sandor111, I've been using the latest (0.9a) on/off for ~4 days and my blades are always freezing, esp when getting a new block or after I see "dispatching new work.." - One might conclude it is any message except "accepted" which has a chance of causing the freeze.
I can't say I've tried everything, but I am pretty sure it isn't the cards as this is an issue occurring in cpuminer, not cgminer.
Overall I think it is a fantastic step fwd, seems stable. I know you are going to add the single step freq soon too, so that will be a big plus.
Otherwise, any ideas on why the blade freezes, particularly when the difficulty jumps and/or new block or dispatching work ..I wish I could be more precise but it is definitely when something besides hashing happens.
I have a pile of 5chips that run on the same raspi with no issue too.
Thanks
The latest is 0.9e, in which Blade stability issues is fixed.

I have to say I've had little but trouble since switching off the last non-versioned minerd I got on the 28th April
It seems to be the issue that everyone else has - eventually work just stops being submitted. Still appears to be working, still have a full set of stats coming but the pool is reporting nothing its end!
I'm giving 0.9e a try now and will see how long it can run for

Same issue here still.too on Raspberrypi. I get a LOT of rejects, sometimes my pool shows.only 75% efficiency. I've tried different pools.with the same result. Tried with auto tune on and off, same result. Using version 0.9e. C worked the best so far. 5 chip miners, 21 per RasPi.
