Yes, I've been following the discussion. I don't use IP masq (and it's not built into my kernels), so it's probably not the culprit in my case. I also have turned of SKB_LARGE and PCI bridge optimizations; neither of those helped. gcc 2.7.2.3, 2.8.0, and egcs-1.0.1 all show this behavior. (I was hoping that fiddling with compilers might move code around just enough to hide the problem).
If I could find the aforementioned debugging patches, I'd love to apply them and see if I can help sort things out; mysterious hangs with no oops or other information (shift-scrollock and other magic keys don't work) aren't much to go on, so I can't be helpful until I find some way to gather more information.
