The crowd should chill out (and perhaps get a life).  :-)))

I don't know if this will actually fix anything.  But I had problems
on sparc64 that were similar to what Kris described when I briefly

with someone else to fix a different problem.  It's worth a try at
least - hopefully it can't hurt anything.
