At least I suppose so, because switching to GZIP makes it work. Kernel was configured via make oldconfig from a working 2.6.32-rc6. Only other difference is that kprobes are disabled in 33-rc1 and enabled in 32-rc6. CPU on the server is Xeon 5110 if it helps. I can post the .config if needed, in fact since I will be away after today, I will do it right now. But as a reply to this to ensure at least this post is not eaten by vger filters.
