Zach seemed to think that this is already fixed - I am not in a
position to test it immediately so if we know what fixed this - can be
closed. I'll report back once I get a chance to test latest git.

Parag, thanks. I reproduced this bug with your kernel config on 2.6.23-rc3 and verified it does not happen on latest git. I inspected memory after the crash and determined the problem was patching of instructions went awry. Chris in the meantime fixed a bug with patching instructions, and the change from 100% apocalyptic failure to 100% unequivocal success has convinced me that was the same bug.
