Below are my annotations of 2.6.13.4 for all sarge and beyond kernels.

I'm particularly interested in someone checking my backports
of the sparc64 problem (not security).

The attached document currently resides in:

   N.B: Could someone please look at these backports.
        They were trivial enough, but I have no way of testing them,
	nor do I have a good grasp of sparc assembly.
	I know this bug was painful to find, so presumably
	a miss-fix would be simmilarly painful. -- Horms
