OK, I managed to test the patch on -current amd64. So far I tried
acroread, linux-firefox and linux-opera. All of them are core dumping
when start. It's a little bit better than without the patch when the
system just reboots.

What should I do further?

BTW, after applying the patch I did only make kernel. Seems that it's
enough. How can I do it faster? Maybe compile/install a linux kernel
module?

Thanks.
