I strongly agree. There are two huge reasons I develop and debug drivers solely in 2.6 now: kksymoops and irqdebug. Both have helped a great deal in tracking down problems. Indeed, screaming irqs that lead to lockups are instantly detected in 2.6. But hey... I'm just a developer. Who can say whether it should be on by default?
