Note: It wasn't known at the time, but the use of a multi-line string
in printk will cause one line to be emitted at KERN_ALERT level, and
the subsequent lines at default_message_loglevel, which is usually
something different.

My patch just posted in msg <20080412161733.24882.30930.stgit@...cab.local.tull.net>
resolves this problem.

Nick.
