Nonetheless the problem occurs with vanilla kernel + vanilla s_context patch,

Problem still there in 2.4.22 + vs1.00. Will try 1.1.5 later on.
(Side benefit of testing on 2.4.22: it forced me to update to kgdb 1.6.
1.5 does an annoying kgdbreg=NULL, leading to all sorts of debugging
trickery to find out what's going on in interrupt land.)
