Re: Fwd: Re: UML kernel crash of v2.6.36-rcX kernel

[Toralf Förster]

I bisected it again w/ a fixed test script, got the same bad commit script and
double checked, that this commit is really the culprit which crashes a user
mode linux kernel at my 32bix x86 stable Gentoo running 2.6.35.6 vanilla kernel
as host system and 2/ gcc version 4.4.3 (Gentoo 4.4.3-r2 p1.2) and
glibc-2.11.2-r1 in the tool chain.

The crash info is 
...
