| blah... I mean `top -b -n 1`

SO exactly what I observed, even with the latest test fix. In my first
try the machin did even do a hard lock...

So I did a emerge -B xorg-x11 (ie. I started compiling xorg-x11 using
gentoo's emerge system). The hard lock occured after a minute or so.
Next try I waited only a bit. I clicked on konsole icon to come up, but
doesn't want to come for too long. In this time I did the top you see.
I'll boot up linux-2.6.8-rc4 and test again (must check first whether it
has reiser4 support...). I will also try to back oput staircase and try
without.

As you can see xorg-x11 wasn't really compiling ie not using cpu, it was
just scaning through the directories to find it it has nothing to do:
