Interesting.  My machine crashed yesterday when unloading the cd9660
LKM.  This was probably a too old LKM, due to the recent LKM build
problems.  I couldn't get on the console though so i don't know what
exactly happened.

Simon, you can't blame the OSS folks for this, if you're running an
older LKM in a -current machine...
