Exactly what changes were made to the MM between 2.0.29 and 2.0.30?
The problem (and solution) may lie there. Now that I'm thinking
about it, I may try to back out changes in mm/, kernel/ and
arch/i386/ with a clean 2.0.30 tomorrow. We could really use the
networking fixes/ enhancements (SYN cookies come to mind...).

No, it is the changes to fs/buffer.c, I am sure of it at this point.
