I can do this backport. A few questions though...

We're seeing a proliferation of this one presumably because
Fedora10 uses 2.6.27.5 as a starting point? If I just backport
the fixes against Greg's latest tree, do I have to do anything
special to make sure they get into the Fedora kernel?

Also, does kerneloops capture any of the machine information,
like DMI output, etc. or does it just get the oops? It would be
nice to see which machines out there have the broken BIOS that
causes this oops.

Thanks.
