Rafael, I added myself to bug 10117 instead of 10093.

I am sorry about this confusion, but the References: to
both bug 10093 and 10117 are this email from Soeren
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/2/23/263 (and this is how I got
to this thread)

That is the hang which happens in my laptop with latest git.
You can check that by looking at this picture I took while
my laptop was hung http://www.ift.unesp.br/users/crmafra/dsc04673.jpg

However you closed bug 10117, but that is not fixed for me so I am 
going to reopen it if you don't mind.

By the way, thanks for all your effort to track down these regressions.
