Yeah, I know..but I spent all day hacking .34 enough to run lockdep and get those backtraces..and they *might* be valid. There's a small chance someone else has seen similar things but not reported it for whatever reason, so maybe they will chime in. And finally, I will attempt to reproduce with some official kernels, and will report what I find one way or another. The .34 kernel has been a real bitch to get stable (You know things must be bad when my name's on -stable patches), so I wouldn't be surprised if I'm hitting another real bug.
