. Manfred might have fixed the long-standing task_struct use-after-free
  bug which happens occasionally on preemptible kernels.

. This kernel immediately triplefaults when compiled with gcc-2.95.3 and
  CONFIG_KGDB.  It is due to compiling with "-ggdb" or "-gdwarf-2".  When
  compiled with "-g" it works OK, but gdb screws that up.

  Moral: use a later gcc if you're a kgdb user.

. Lots of fixes for random things, as usual.  Keep 'em coming.

Changes since 2.6.0-test2-mm5:
