I wanted to give a heads-up, in case there was a D'Oh! patch hiding. At worst, I just need another 6 or 7 bisects to figure out which of those 120-ish patches is the culprit. With luck I'll end up stopped on a patch that in retrospect was obviously busticated. If not, we'll have to apply the usual more drastic measures. If you don't have a box that's already demonstrating it, and you don't have any obvious candidates, it's likely that the most productive use of everybody's time is for you to chase down any other kobject issues while I bisect the problem down further...
