Of course only now have I spotted the 20040702 entry in UPDATING! 
Anyway, thanks for the helpful replies I've received, turning off 
PREEMPTION has fixed the problem.  I still have ULE configured, which in 
light of what I've just spotted is perhaps not the best thing to use at 
the moment, so I'll probably revert to 4BSD for the time being.  I suppose 
the important lesson I've learned is that even if I can't keep up with the 
list, UPDATING obviously needs to be checked thoroughly whenever I do a 
cvsup.

Thanks again: my machine is now feeling a lot happier.

Chris.
