Apparently bluetooth is known-broken.  Do you actually have any bluetooth
hardware there?

What are the chances of seeing Chris's reiserfs xattr patches merged into 
mainline?

Looks like something was missed here.

arch/sparc64/kernel/signal.c: In function `do_signal':
arch/sparc64/kernel/signal.c:627: warning: passing arg 2 of 
`get_signal_to_deliver' from incompatible pointer type
arch/sparc64/kernel/signal.c:627: warning: passing arg 3 of 
`get_signal_to_deliver' from incompatible pointer type
arch/sparc64/kernel/signal.c:627: error: too few arguments to function 
`get_signal_to_deliver'

Anyone got any suggestions?

You'll need to revert signal-race-fix.patch for now - nobody has done the
sparc64 bit.  And I haven't pushed for it because the whole thing needs to
be redone, if that's at all practical.
