Comment (by John Denker):

 It's still broken as of 23 May 2006
 * svn r1591 ("code freeze")
 * Linux 2.6.16.11

 Same symptoms as before:  Hard lockup, i.e. does not respond to
 soft-lockup detector, but does respond to watchdog pulling on the
 NMI line.

 The bug is 100% reproducible chez moi using the command
 {{{
 crashme bracket 1 0
 }}}

 Here's the traceback:
