Could you try a bisection search for it (first > re-verify -rc7 is OK, just in case that's a false negative). I have been away a few days - I'll try this weekend rebuilding older kernels (I save religiously my .configs for every kernel I built in the last, um, five years at least) and give the reboot/ DVD mount/access sequence a go...
