Actually I don't believe this applies to any kernels prior to 2.6.27-rc1.
It looks like the commit that broke this in the first place
(http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=746b9f0228a1c607b3db67c80da1c2a963321926)
was added to the torvalds tree on July 17th and 2.6.26 was released about a
week before.
Sorry about not putting much of a changelog in for this. It was something I
found as a side issue while working on something else, I set it aside and
kept working on my patches. I forgot to come back and put a description in
there other than what was wrong prior to forwarding it to Jeff K.
Thanks,
Alex
