I made some more tests using snapshot.debian.org:
linux-image-2.6.30-2-686-bigmem: (2.6.30-8squeeze1) is OK
linux-image-2.6.31-1-686-bigmem: (2.6.31-2) is NOT OK

All linux-image-2-6-32 i test are NOT OK.
even kernel 2.6.32 from ubuntu 10.04 is NOT OK
2.6.34 from experimental is NOT OK

It seems to me that kernel after 2.6.30 (2.6.3[1234], ....) are NOT OK

I can make more tests if necessary.
Perhaps we can increase the severity of the bug ?

Thank you
