**sigh** I was _very_ tired last night....

Of course, I'm talking rubbish, I am __only__ monitoring IRQ blocking - not
times when there is kernel code running with unblocked IRQs.

**another sigh** I wonder if anyone has ported TIMEPEGS to LinuxPPC? (I
already asked around a bit - and it doesn't seem so...)

Maybe I'll have a go - but not for a couple of weeks...

Iain.
