Hi David,
the patch does indeed fix the problem. I was able to build glibc-2.5 all the way
trough on Niagara. I am CC Ben and Martin because we need this in .17 kernels
too. A similar bug has been found on PPC and it has been escalated to local DoS
since any user can actually kill a system just running the test suite.
Thanks
Fabio

I have had my T1000 lockup intermittently. Im running a vanilla 2.6.18
kernel. I get in the system logs for quite a few of the cpus

after these. while the system stays alive I cant actually do anything
I think Fabbione was seeing this one too, CC:d for more testing.
This patch below should fix it, thanks for the most excellent bug
report.
