Ok, I spent some time compiling and found out that
-next-20080424 is good -next-20080428 is bad
and all kernels after 20080428 that I've tried failed to boot.
The problem with 20080428 is a NULL pointer dereference: http://www.ift.unesp.br/users/crmafra/img_2436.jpg
and this is apparently the same error as current 20080702 when booted with the 'nosmp' parameter: http://www.ift.unesp.br/users/crmafra/img_2425.jpg
The sad thing is that these are the last messages on the screen, but there were others before them (I think that's why it says it is tainted).
