With 2.6.12-rc2-V0.7.44-03, the P4/HT box has been stable all day. I'm
seeing another BUG on boot, not kprobes related this time:

Freeing unused kernel memory: 192k freed

I'm also seeing an unlikely wakeup time:

( X-3581 |#1): new 2533412143 us maximum-latency wakeup.


Otherwise, this on seems very stable.
