Quick runtime test summary:

 - 3 boxes produced the boot warning
 - two crashed (both 32-bit - i guess the WP test crash)
 - one booted up fine

So there's widespread breakage on x86, i'd suggest holding off on 
this for another day, so that we can get it fixed and tested some 
more.

I still like patches of course! :-)
