Great.  Which versions are the 2.6.32 version and 3.1.y version
you tested?  You can get version numbers with

	dpkg-query -W <package name>

from looking in the parentheses in "cat /proc/version" with a
running kernel, or by looking in /var/log/dpkg.log.

If you have time for it, could you also try a few versions halfway
between from <http://snapshot.debian.org/> to narrow down the search
for the patch introducing the fix?

Thanks much,
Jonathan
