Argh.  How did I miss seeing this thing?  I've been dealing with 
userspace annoyances for far too long.  It's too bad that I updated my 
desktop's kernel to the latest vanilla over the weekend.  The next time 
I build a kernel, I'll try switching it out with kexec and seeing what 
sort of trouble I can get into.  (OK, it'll probably work just fine, but 
I'm better than most people at finding weird bugs and bizarre problems 
totally by accident....)
