Package: kernel-image-2.6.8-2-686-smp
Followup-For: Bug #309308
Just noticed this bug in the testing-security list. I don't know if the
below patch has been slurped into the Debian patches for 2.6.8, but the
error posted looks like the same error I suffered when hitting this bug.
Patch from http://lists.osdl.org/pipermail/bridge/2004-September/000638.html
The patch was taken into 2.6.9-rc2, and the bug was in code introduced
very late in the 2.6.8 cycle. (August 2004 I believe)

Cut and paste from the web archive, so spacing etc. may be boned.
But it's a typo-only fix anyway, so easy enough to recreate.
