Current 2.2 kernels have the fix, as do all 2.4 kernels. I was the one
doing the pestering to get it fixed... kernels past June or July 99 should
be OK. If anyone needs an earlier kernel fixed mail me and I can probably
whip up a patch. You need to fix integer wrap bugs in the ISA range
check, and in the past-4GB check.
