i think it worked.
i mean, i have a collection of 9 machines running march 14th current
and those gave me problems... (cloned from one disk into each 8 others)
today i cvsuped (i checked that the patch had been committed) and
made kernel for one of the machines. (just kernel, bad idea but
since it didnt break top/w/ps i didnt bother to make world)
no hangs in that machine ever since.
then i copied the kernel into the other machines, didnt compile
it in those 8 others which share the same binaries. for some
reason the first boot in some of them hanged, none of the
following reboots hanged any of them. i tested multiple boots
after some downtime, and rebooting when machine is warm.
so i can claim it worked for me too. thanx to everyone who
were involved.
but i keep myself ready for any additional testing... =)

ps. anyone wondering, yes, a production environment... :>
(but i have an experience running current on production
from like '94, i think i know what i do, so far been "safe")
