  In a previous msg I mentioned that I had tried compiling the HEAD of
my git repository, but only after I had posted to LKML.  I was at work
when I wrote the prev msg, so I could not provide details except from
memory.

  OK, now I'm home:

  This kernel built fine, but froze at boot just like the 2.6.26 kernels,
unless using "hpet=disabled".
  Sorry that I forgot to do this before my orig. post.
