Still get the warning... but now 60 bytes.

Thanks for trying this.

NP. Let me know what else I can do to help with this one. Note that
it seems innocuous. I'll continue with the older set and no dmar for
now and see if I get another crash.
     
Maybe one more idea to try (not compiled).

That not only compiled, but it cleared the error as well. Additionally, 
I used to see a bit of a delay receiving the login prompt when first 
connecting to the box by ssh. That delay is gone with this patch. I'd 
guess that the warning wasn't quite as innocuous as I thought.
Note: tested on 2.6.32.4.  I'll leave this up for a bit before 
attempting to move back to head.
