As a matter of fact this is most certainly kernel-source-2.4.27 from
Debian. This problem was recently fixed (as discussed in the mini-thread
about how CML1 blows chunks.)

For what it's worth to Google, kernel-tree-2.4.27-4 has just hit
unstable (will reach mirrors by tomorrow) and should have fixed this
problem.

Sorry for the noise caused to LKML.
