I think to debug this, we'll want to split the patch into the various 
small changes that make it up and determine which change caused the 
problem.  Michael, are you willing to do that debugging?  I'd be happy to 
generate for you a patch series of like a dozen patches broken out for 
bisecting if that'd help.
