i like this approach better, not the least because it affects only one architecture so late in the .24-rc cycle. Instrumentation bugs tend to be found with a few weeks/months of delays. (because historically instrumentation has been typically used by folks who cannot change their kernel easily to debug it, i.e. by extension they dont run bleeding edge kernels either.)
