Do you know if this was pre or post the root-domain code?  Here is a
reference to the commit:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=57d885fea0da0e9541d7730a9e1dcf734981a173

A bisection that shows when this last worked for you would be very
appreciated if you have the time, Dimitri.
