Hi Daniel,

I must apologize for the delay, but I finally got around to testing the 
patch from 81014b9d0b55fb0b48f26cd2a943359750d532db tonight. 
Conveniently, it applied cleanly to Debian's 3.2.21-3 sources with just 
a slight offset.

I'm extremely pleased to report that, with the patch, everything works 
as it should.

Thank you sincerely for taking the time to respond, and for authoring 
that commit. I'm looking forward to a stable kernel release that 
includes the patch -- My poor Atom N270 just isn't made for building 
things that large. :)

Cheers,
-Dan
