Yes, it is (*).

(*) Okay, so 2.6.27 does not boot due to the 'reset floating'
bug. 'reset floating' is fixed in 2.6.28-rc1, and compilation of spitz
is fixed in 2.6.28-rc2, but it still will not boot.

So yes, some new spitz-breaking bug got introduced. But no, 2.6.27
will not boot due to other bug. 2.6.26 boots.
