I was getting some very weird kernel panics on my SMP x86 test box.  Usually
triggered by staying in vi for "a while".  This still needs to go in in some
form or another, but the x86 side of it isn't quite all there yet it seems.
The panics I saw were usually kernel page faults that made no sense.  David
O`Brien also reported a kernel segment not present panic, so I'm pretty sure
these changes are the guilty ones. :-/
