After updating apport information with the new kernel from the security
updates today, I did a bit more testing on the guest VM side. Aside from
the host kernel version, it does seem to depend on the guest OS or boot
loader(?):

* Oneiric 64 bit: works
* SLES-11-SP1: works (!)
* SLES-10-SP4: broken

Since the guest already re-starts when initializing GRUB, I would guess
that the boot loader is to blame. Althogh I would expect the VM host to
be able to run these beasts, after all it is supposed to be a hardware
virtualization.

Do you have any suggestions to further narrow down the cause of this
issue?
