The patch causing that behaviour went in between 2.6.18 and 2.6.19rc-1. I have
some 100 patches to go bisecting the bug, but it's slow work due to
difficulties in getting physical access to the machine for extended periods
of time.
I'll be sure to let you know when I have the exact commit. That may be at any
time from tomorrow to beginning of July, I'm not sure yet what my free time
allows.
Yours,
-Malte
