Looks like I got hit by such a bug.¹  It left a strip(1) in __down,
and a subsequent rm(1) recursing to that file also is in __down.

I’ll give a try after sleep w/ deadline....

The dumps I still have² are:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
 printing eip:

ksymoops adds this bit:

I presume there was another Oops: 0000, but it is lost².

¹ And I didn’t even know I was running the new scheduler; the
  bk-commits-head email lagged enough behind the push to
  linux.bkbits.net that I received it after booting
  the new kernel....  I guess that answers the
  question of which comes first. ;-/

² Turns out msyslogd(8)’s im_linux(8)’ is not too
  happy w/ 2.5’s lack of /proc/ksyms.  [SIGH]
