Hi,

I believe this is one of the bugs that is fixed in the patch that I sent monday. Please 
try again with the patch applied to your tree and re-test. Thanks. I didn't see Andrew 
merge the patch yet.

see: http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/1/16/226

I can mail the patch if you can't find it. Just ping me privately.

Cheers,

Auke
