# rpm -q --changelog kernel-2.4.22-1.2097.nptl | head
* Wed Oct 15 2003 Dave Jones <davej at redhat.com>
 
- Drop kupdated 'fix' that broke things with nptl.
- Fix up unresolved symbols.
 
* Tue Oct 14 2003 Dave Jones <davej at redhat.com>
 
- More merges from 2.4.23pre
  - Update ACPI CA to 20031002
  - Various network driver updates.

Given that last line, you might want to try updating to the newest
kernel and then adding that report to your BZ entry.
