Sadly, the debian 5.0 (current stable) chose 2.6.26 as distribution kernel. Of 
course they do kernel as part of distribution support by them self.

Currently there isn't any free resources to do 2.6.27-stable testing. 
Switching from distribution kernel to custom one adds much more work for 
system admin, so this options is the last one none other will work.

If there is any demand to test 22945e4a1c7454c97f5d8aee1ef526, there can be 
such test done. But this issue was found only once, and on first hour after 
nfs server configuration was started.

So the average system uptime from 300 days without nfs droped to 1 hour with nfs.

Currently I didn't know how to reproduce this situation (and didn't tried). 
But as i found this issue is known, is faced by lot of people, and nfs 
maintainer states that 22945e4a1c7454c97f5d8aee1ef526 is cure to this problem.
