I'm currently in the middle of a bisect over the last week of commits to linus' 
tree, but I got the following with -mm1 that isn't showing up in the latest 
2.6.21-git:

And this fantastic Oops:

[   40.965352] Oops: 0000 [#1]
[   40.965467] PREEMPT 

It occurs when racoon is started so must be IPSEC related, I'll have more information 
once I finish bisecting and merge -mm1 again.
