-rc5-mm1 appears to be a trainwreck. It's a bit of a mystery - I've tried
several further configs and it all works swimmingly.

Hopefully some of the people who are hitting this will be able to tell us
whether http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/2.6.16-rc5-mm1.1.gz
or http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/2.6.16-rc5-mm1.2.gz work
OK, so I know how much to drop..
