Request for FC3Blocker: #132947 (kernel memory leak on x86_64 in 32/64 mixed mode)

[Axel Thimm]

According to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=130887:
> This is the master Fedora Core 3 "BLOCKER" bug.  Any bug in
> Red Hat bugzilla which would be considered a "stop ship" bug
> a.k.a. a "ultra brown paper bag" bug, can be marked for consideration
> to be a release BLOCKER by adding this bug to it's "Blocks:" field.
> 
> Anyone in the community who wishes to nominate bugs for FC3Blocker
> status, should discuss them on the fedora-devel-list at redhat.com,
> and once concensus has been reached, someone can flag them as
> FC3Blocker, or alternatively as FC3Target.
> 
> This bug has the bug alias "FC3Blocker" for easy access and
> blocker flagging.

I think https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=132947 is
a definite candidate:

> Running 32 bits applications on x86_64 FC distributions with kernels
> based on 2.6.8 (2.6.8-1.521 and 2.6.8-1.541 currently) generate
> continuous memory leaks. Returning to the previous 2.6.7 based
> kernels turns this behaviour off.

The bug comes from FC2 (so testers need not run FC3t2 to verify).
