First I thought this is something related to amd64 and should be  
reported to the LTP people...

That's strange. Very strange. Compiling the stuff in a gentoo-stage3  
chroot didn't resulted in a panic/reboot for me. I got reports about a  
missing /proc and /dev/null, but after I mounted linprocfs and devfs  
in the gentoo chroot, it went just fine.

I suggest to find the cause of this when you are back in front of the  
machines.

Bye,
Alexander.
