Just to clarify here, is the crash a combination of: - the kernel image, based on different trees/branches - different GCC versions - different ways of invoking QEMU/QEMU version? and essentially Justin's commit just made problem 1) to occur, but is not the root cause of the crash you are seeing? -- Florian
