As I explained to you in private, while that reduces the likelyhood of
the problem occurring (and is probably a good idea anyway, so I plan to
push that change to the main drm repo once I've tested it), it's not a
fix of the actual problem. If you're running a 32 bit secondlife on a 64
bit kernel, see http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10561#c28 .
