I have cvsup'ed the sources to STABLE as of Nov. 23rd
2005.
After recompiling/installing world and debug-kernel,
I again get a kernel deadlock when using swapfile:
http://surfion.snu.ac.kr/~lahaye/swapfile2.txt
Previous deadlocks are still documented here
http://surfion.snu.ac.kr/~lahaye/swapfile.txt
I hope this is of use for fixing this bug in 6.
If further investigation is needed, then please let me
know.
Regards,
Rob.
