Am currently sat at a x86_64 pentium D machine with 1GB ram. I did
memhog 1g, which didn't trigger the bug you see. I also did stress
--vm 32, which clobbered the machine while I went for coffee, but also
didn't trigger the bug. This is with kernel  2.6.24.4-64.fc8. Tomorrow
I can try on a pentium core 2 duo machine with 2G ram.
