This looks like an operator precedence bug introduced by the patch.
Normally I would test this myself before sending it out, but I can't test 2.6.27-rc1 right now on my hardware due to another bug in the 2.6.27-rc1 tree.
Can you please try the following patch and let me know if that fixes the problem?
Thanks, -- Tim
