	I tried it out with a kernel from October 26th on my SMP box; I ran
two copies of it simultaneously without a problem.  (I was trying to 
reproduce PR kern/4859.  The guy who filed that PR was running 
3.0-971002-SNAP.)

	If you're having trouble with it, I'd suggest getting newer
sources, since it doesn't seem to be a problem now.
