Thanks!

The kernel tree resides on an ext4 partition. The machine has two Xeon
E5520 processors and runs 64-bit Ubuntu 10.04 which uses eglibc 2.11.1.
Note that the kernel is being cross-compiled for ARM under an
OpenEmbedded toolchain (have tried both gcc 4.4.4 and 4.5). This is the
only strange behavior that I know of.
