git-nfsd from git://git.linux-nfs.org/projects/bfields/linux.git#for-mm
-> compiling and installing 54 packages worked without crashes.

git-net from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-2.6.25.git
-> compiling and installing 95 packages worked without crashes.

The only thing in the announces of 2.6.24-rc3-mm1/2 that stands out for me is:

 iommu work

I will enable CONFIG_IOMMU_DEBUG in -rc6-mm1 and see, as otherwise I
have no clue where to look...
