Unfortunately I don't see any change, applied to queue-2.6.32 and on top of
idr-fix-a-critical-misallocation-bug.patch, KDE 4.3.4 still terminates and
dumps me back to kdm. Applied on top of 2.6.33-rc6-git4 it still continues
to freeze X during ksplash and spews the same oops message as before:

Reverting 859ddf09743a8cc680af33f7259ccd0fd36bfe9d "idr: fix a critical
misallocation bug" however fixes the problem on 2.6.33-rc6-git4 (and
queue-2.6.32), KDE 4.3.4 starts up correctly and the oops is gone.
