Subject: Linux 2.6.27-rc3: waitpid06

[mostly generic hand-waving]

LTP overnight run resulted in a box which
a) pings
b) reSysRq+Bbootable

And that's all.

SysRq+<the rest> doesn't work (doesn't print anything on console and on
netconsole) nor does ssh to to box. Pressing keys on keyboard doesn't wakeup
console.

Printout stopped at waitpid06 test. This is second time I see this.
First time it was more or less reproducible, there were waitpid06
processes eating all CPU.
