Sorry for not answering sooner.

I don't really have time to recompile / test more at this time; in any case, 
I think it's just a minor annoyance and not what I'd feed into a "fixes 
only" tree.  (I'm not involved in kernel development in any way, but I 
thought that the stable tree should be quite limited in what goes in?)

cheers
