Given that it's an immediate constant load, something really serious happened. i've pushed out the broken tree into tip/tmp.master.broken (havent updated tip/master with the breakage). I've removed the broken printk in kernel/resource.c that Andrew found, see commit 06e44f6af324 - so that's not the cause. Ingo
