Bummer, bummer.

I had almost exactly the same failure on my 95 Ritchey WCS hub. But at least I had the pleasure of riding it a few years. Mine was in a radial laced front wheel too, and I knew that the WCS was not recommended for radial lacing. When lacing 3cross the spoke pull acts on a longer section of the hub flange and the stresses in the flange are less severe.
 
feel for ya.

last week. My beloved Ringle hub finally passed away. Served me 10 long years on my GT.

Oh well.
