Can you print the two values? I've never seen such a problem.
If it works then they must be identical, otherwise user space would
break very quickly.

printk("%p %p %p\n", (unsigned long) &vgettimeofday, &vgettimeofday, VSYSCALL_ADDR(__NR_vgettimeofday));

ffffffffff600000 ffffffffff600000 ffffffffff600000

I've no idea why it still triggers. Also the next one BTW:
vtime link addr brokenIA32

The compiler is: gcc version 3.4.0 20040111 (experimental)

Servus,
