yeah this happens with rc6 but not with rc5.

The system is a linux from scratch build
x86_64 I used these flags for building everything:

CFLAGS=" -m64 -mtune=core2 -march=core2 -mfpmath=both -O2 -pipe
-fomit-frame-pointer -fstack-protector" CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}" MAKEOPTS="{-j3}"

also: I have a macbook(not x86_64) that is running rc6 that seems
to be fine.(I can double check).

attached is .config, dmesg as well.
