Sorry for the confusion and for such a lousy first time bug reporter.

I realized that mistake immediately after I posted it on the web 
interface. However, the web interface does not seem to allow me to 
correct that.

What I meant was that it failed on both the kernel versions I tested. I 
am afraid it  is a problem which exists all a long. Perhaps it has been 
broken quite sometime already. I need to go back to try some older 
kernel version and see if I could repeat the problem.

Regards.
