OK, it got passed the point where it usually starts spitting out the
errors.

I'm going to add this patch to my "fixes" patches that get added to my
test kernels to fix issues that cause my tests to fail that were bugs
outside my code ;-)

This test takes over 8 hours (although the i386 portion is less than an
hour). If it finishes with no problems other than my own, I'll let you
know.

Thanks!
