I have had crashes with 2.4.7, 2.4.8, and all -pre i tried from
2.4.7-pre5 and onward as well as with the few recent -ac I tried.

The diff I included earlier was the part of the difference from
2.4.7-pre4 to -pre5 that I narrowed down the lockup to.

I will try 2.4.9-pre tomorrow and see what happens (but recent kernels
have taken longer (about 24h) to lock up than older (<1h), so a positive
success will take some time.
