The only change in that is enabling intelligent TLB flushes. That shouldnt [ha as usual] cause any problems. I've not put the IRQ forwarder in the main code yet (and its now going to need a bit of work to make a clean patch of as linus fiddled with syscall entry recently). Its on the todo list.
I've verified that the 4Mb paging stuff works right now (its been working for ages but I didnt have the vm torture tester around). So I'll submit that change for .26

Can you firstly find exactly which release causes the problem. Also tell me what gcc and binutils you have.
