The problem persists in 2.6.25-0.195.rc8.git1.fc9.i686, and has gotten worse. 
There is no way to turn off the vdso, not even booting with " vdso=0" appended
to the kernel boot commandline.  /proc/sys/vm/vdso_enabled says 0, but "grep
vdso /proc/self/maps" still shows a vdso:

$ grep vdso /proc/self/maps
00131000-00132000 r-xp 00131000 00:00 0          [vdso]
