 amverify started, then shortly later (after the first thing was done
 verifying, I think) these managed to make it to syslog. As you can see,
 it got the bug message, then rebooted itself a few minutes later:
 
 Sep  9 01:12:27 Maxwell kernel: ide-tape: bug: tape-next_stage != NULL
 Sep  9 01:16:14 Maxwell kernel: klogd 1.4.1#17, log source = /proc/kmsg 
 started.
 Sep  9 01:16:14 Maxwell kernel: Inspecting /boot/System.map-2.6.12-1-k7
 
 This is quite repeatable, and I never saw it on 2.6.8 (sarge). I'll test
 that particular tape on 2.6.8 just to be sure.
 
 Shortly (as in a second at most) after that, it panics (with the in the
 interrupt handler, not syncing message), which doesn't make it to the
 log. If that info is imporant, I'll work on getting a serial console to
 capture it.

 Oh, btw, it just died on a different tape tonight... I rebooted to
 2.6.8, and it works fine there. So its definitely a regression from 2.6.8.
