I gave 2.5.42-mm2 a test run yesterday, and it hung the box solid
while doing a kernel compile. The compile stopped dead in the middle
of a file, and there was no response when trying to access another
console (no X running). Alt-sysrq worked, so it wasn't completely dead
- sync/umount/reboot worked.
Nothing in the logs - no oops or other kernel messages.
Rebooted and repeated the experiment with the same result,
so it appears to be reproducible.
Stock 2.5.42 has worked OK for a day now, including kernel
compiles - the system has performed flawlessly for a 
couple of years as my normal workstation.
PII processor, 384 MB RAM, SCSI disk (ncr53c8xx driver),
Intel eepro/100 network adapter. Kernel config at
http://www.hswn.dk/config-2.5.42-mm2

Please reproduce and pass on the output from sysrq-t.
