As said in the subject, 2.6.10 exibits this. I had a similar issue 
earlier on in 2.6.8, that one got fixed with a host of other related 
ones. Then the same symptoms popped up sometime later in the development 
of the kernel; not sure exactly when this got introduced as we only ran 
our own internal 2.6.8 tree with the fix in.

I should probably do a binary search and at least pinpoint when it 
happened, but I won't have any free resources to do so until sometime 
this weekend.
