In the meantime I've got access to a parisc SMP box (J5000), and now I think I faced for the very first time the often-here-reported SMP kernel bug. While this happened, I was debugging konqueror (the KDE web browser) with gdb and suddenly I faced this crash: Program received signal SIGILL, Illegal instruction.

Does this backtrace help? The installed kernel is Debian's 2.6.30-2-parisc-smp kernel. Btw, the glibc is the standard (linuxthreads-based) Debian glibc 2.9-27. I haven't yet installed Carlos' NPTL-enabled glibc on this machine yet.
