It's not for 64-bit kernels only.  It's used for all syscalls, whether
from 32-bit code or 64-bit code, to any kernel.  (It existed long before
AMD64 chips were out -- it was introduced way back in kernel 2.5.X, and
was the cause of an assertion failure when running /lib/libc.so.6, until
glibc's assertion was fixed.)

That's probably not it then.  But have you tried with a kernel.org
kernel on SuSE?  Or is that asking for trouble because of some of the
things SuSE adds?

I doubt that will help either, though, to be honest.

Perhaps.  Unfortunately it doesn't help us find the bug.  ;-)

Have you tried a "normal" install, or don't you have enough disk space
for that?
