What happened to the new lines? It looks like a bad alphabet soup

Do you perhaps have a boot log from before 2.6.17 (e.g. 2.6.16)?
Preferably with newlines.

It's remove-timer-fallback likely. I was working on that already.

Some boards go into the timer fallback path since 2.6.17/64bit for so
far unknown reasons and that doesn't work anymore because I removed the
fallback path.
