I didn't see a report of this on the kernel mailing list.  A post to
LKML with Ingo CC'ed is much more likely to get results than mailing him
privately - I often send requests for tech support via private mail
to /dev/null as I don't have the bandwidth to help people unless it's in
a public forum where others can get the answer from Google next time.
