    Ok, either we have two bugs with _exactly_ the same behaviour, or
    something is just getting screwed up. That single change has definitely
    been fingered as being the problem by a few people. And removing the one
    line (if you have an x86-64 system you have to remove it in the x86-64
    version of the file too) should undo the patch that seems to have caused
    the problem in the first place.

    Anyway, my one-liner patch won't have applied at all if you had applied
    Andrew's patch, so the first thing to do is to double-check that it
    actually got applied. I'm still hoping. But assuming it did, can you
    enable APIC debugging in include/asm-i386/apic.h, and send the resulting
    honking huge dmesg to me and the other suspects in this on-going saga?

    Preferably both from a plain 2.6.7 kernel (well, "plain" except for the
    DEBUG enable) and from the broken kernel..
