Subject: Linux 2.6.32.67

I've just released Linux 2.6.32.67.

It fixes two regressions introduced in 2.6.32.66. One of them can cause
random crashes a few minutes after boot based on TCP traffic, so 2.6.32
users must skip 2.6.32.66 and use 2.6.32.67 instead.

As a reminder, 2.6.32's end of life is approaching in a few months, so
users should start to consider switching to a more recent one (both 3.2
and 3.4 seem perfectly suited).

The patch and changelog will appear soon at the following locations:
  https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/longterm/v2.6.32/

  Testing status (build/boot, OK/FAIL, otherwise not tested) :

         ARCH  |         CONFIGURATION
       --------+-----------------------------------
               |  allmodconfig     other-config
        x86_64 |    build:OK            -

Thanks to those who reported these issues, and to Greg for the final packaging.
