This problem was reported to me by Intel and others. It was affecting
the 2.5 kernel only. However given that RHAS 2.1 is also using the
O(1) scheduler, I had to fix it in 2.4.18/RHAS. I don't exactly
know which kernel you are using at SGI. Note that the fix has been
propagated to 2.5.60 as well. I can provide the patch to you but
note that it also includes updates to perfmon to bring it closer
to what we have in 2.4.20. My goal is to minimize the number of
variations out there ;->
