no luck - a few hundred successful randconfig bootups overnight (with a 
rather complex userspace startup to full X plus networking, and the 
testbox is used via the network to compile the next random kernel as 
well - etc.) and no failure at all. So there's not much we can do at 
this point - i'll keep you updated if anything new happens in the tests.
