as a stopgap measure, but I'm not all that interested in grabbing patch

Yup, I second that one.  The idea of the original 2G split
was to avoid the need for HIGHMEM entirely, reducing overhead
on slower machines.

Having both kinds of splits is fine, but probably just the original one
with the !PAE is okay too.
