Don't bother. I just checked 2.6.22-rc3 and the problem is not present
which means something between rc2 and rc3 has fixed the problem. I hate
it when problems (appear to) fix themselves as it usually means they're
just hiding.

I didn't see any patches between rc2 and rc3 that were likely to have
fixed this (but doesn't mean there wasn't one). I'm wondering whether I
should do a git bisect to see if I can find where it got fixed?

Could you see if you can reproduce it on 2.6.22-rc2?

No. Just tried 2.6.22-rc2 64-bit version at runlevel 3 on my remote
system at office. 15 attempts didn't show the issue.

Sure that nothing changed in your test setup?


I just rechecked with an old kernel and the problem was still there.
