I really don't know how often I've seen this in recent 2.4 kernels
(.17,.18,.19,.20 (mainstream) and so on).

For me, I use the rmap VM. The problem is eliminated in that tree. Also the
-aa VM does not have that problem.

I am pretty sure Andrea sent a fix for this issue more than once a while ago
to the list cc'ed Marcelo (correct me if I am wrong), but to quote Andrea:
"We are here to fix bugs. If bug fixes are not accepted we can stop right here
to fix bugs".

ciao, Marc
