	Yes, SMP (Athlon64 X2 and I noticed it on a Xeon 3040 too).

	My rules are pretty simple:

	No. Nothing special.

	The interesting is that this behaviour started at 2.6.25 kernel version, but
I couldn't find anything that was changed between .24 and .25 to cause this. Very strange.

	Is there a way I can trace the function that generates the log output syslog line?
I use Function Tracer included in 2.6.27 kernel already, but I need a way to stop the tracing
it exactly at the point when this happens, otherwise the tracing buffer will be replaced...
