Currently there are 33 patches in my tree to do this.

The weirdest symptom I have had so far is that page faults did not
trigger the early exception handler on x86_64 (instead I got a reboot).

There is one outstanding issue where I am probably requiring too much
alignment
on the arch/i386 kernel.

Can anyone find anything else?


I am running into compilation failure on x86_64.

I'm not quite certain what is wrong, except that you haven't
applied all of my patches.

The x86_64 ones do depend on the i386 ones to some extent.
That is why it was one giant patchset.
