at first I was under the impression this was an arch thing because of 
building an x86_32, and then building x86_64(and hitting this). but now 
after reverting to 2.6.27 I'm thinking other wise.(my bad, should of 
done this at first but didn't even think too);

no..
I need  to do a bisect from 2.6.27 to present to see
(just need to crash for a few hrs, then can start);
then I'll go from there.
