Hi Fenghua,

I ran into the same issue on a test system I use (not a virtual
machine) and went through basically the same process as Dave
Hansen w/bisecting before finding this thread.

Any chance you could send the patch to the mailing list and I could
also throw it on my test system?

Thanks,
Shaun
