No it doesn't.
Dang, I tried to figure out what's up, but now I really have to start
handling all the puill requests..
I thought it might be an int3 that happens on the entry stack, but I
don't think that should ever happen. Either it's a user-mode int3, or
we're in the kernel and have switched stacks. So I still don't see why
my patch doesn't work, but now I have no time to debug it.
