after going schizo with reverting patches,
I've come down to thinking that this freeze might
 have to do with the tracer merge that happened
a few days ago. (been avoiding that one) I'll have
to revert (If I can) the whole thing to see if this
machine boot's with rc6.
As for perf I reverted everything
up to rc5, and the machine still sticks telling me that
might not be the issue.
