Sorry, I was out of town, I'll build a kernel asap.
Stefan confirmed the bug (on i386 platform, apparently x86_64 did not
expose the broken behaviour) and the bug fixed at Ubuntu with your
patch. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/318565 . So I assume he
tested it and it fixed the problem, but I'll test as well myself.
Thanks!
Bernhard
