Does reverting to pre-July 20 get rid of your problem? Note that the
originator of the first Email mentionned that he is running what
appeared to be stock 5.1-RELEASE, which may or may not be related to
what you're seeing.
If reverting to pre-July 20 gets rid of your problem, perhaps we can
figure out what commit triggered this behavior for you. Also, do you
have PAE enabled?
