Maybe it's unrelated, but that same "attempt to access beyond end of device" keeps me from even booting 2.3.10, 11, 12, or 13 kernels (haven't tried earlier ones). I get the error as it is trying to execve("/sbin/init").
Also maybe unrelated, I found this at http://www.kt.opensrc.org/kt19990701_25.html#9 :
9. Linux Moves On After Invasive Recoding Subject: [patch] fix for the `access beyond end of device' bug of 2.3.[789] Andrea Arcangeli posted a one-liner against 2.3.8, causing much jubilation. Ingo Molnar replied, "yess, this was it :) I have re-checked this place a hundred times yesterday but missed the bug ;)" and Linus said, "Whee.. That was indeed a silly bug, and one that was hard as hell to find. Good work, Andrea!" He added, "I'll make a 2.3.9 with this (and some other cleanups and fixes), and then I can finally start accepting other patches again (assuming it seems to be stable)."
Did anything from 2.3.9+ get back-ported to 2.2.10-ac12?
Regards, Brad
