Processes, most easily mozilla, get stuck in the "D" state in
2.4.4-pre4. I don't believe this was fixed in pre2 but now it happens
again. Also, just a minor error, but 2.4.4-pre4 modules are put in
the 2.4.3 directory. The version number was probably accidentally left
the same.

Linus is good about rememeber to change the version these days. This
sounds like a patch/install error on your side...

I'm very silly.... Let me retest rw-semaphores with the patch "properly"
applied before I open my mouth. Sorry for the bother.
