Want uni-processor kernel on FC5 x86_64

Hi,
since the upgrade to FC5.x86_64 (from FC3.x86_64) Thunderbird sometimes
locks up when downloading large emails (not always reproducible),
Firefox frequently hangs (irreproducibly) without apparent reason.
Starting both programs with "strace -f ..." shows that the last system
call before lockups are futex syscalls. So I thought there might be some
race condition? Maybe it has to do with the SMP kernel used by default
in 64bit FC5? Is there a way to get a "FC5.x86_64-standard kernel"
without SMP?
Regards,
Harald
