With today's git host kernel I can no longer boot my Ubuntu virtual
machine - udevd, modprobe etc. just die with glibc detecting realloc()
errors (invalid next size) and I am dropped to initramfs prompt.
Going back to the distro kernel 2.6.26 makes the same VM work again.
Here is the command line -
kvm -m 2048m -drive file=ubuntu.img,if=virtio,boot=on -net
nic,model=virtio -net user -cdrom xubuntu-8.10-rc-desktop-i386.iso
-boot c -redir tcp:2222::22
$ kvm

Please pull again and retry.

I have a truly marvellous patch that fixes the bug which this
signature is too narrow to contain.
