I think this is very good grounds to get into 2.6.16, even if it does mean pushing the release back. The other thing that is typically done for regressions like these close to release time is to revert the offending changes. I figure that in this case, such an option is probably _more_ risky. -- SUSE Labs, Novell Inc.
