Thanks for the answer. Of course you are right, that 48h isn't that long for a just local exploit.

The places to patch the kernel-source should be exactly the same in both.

Means that there is an all or nothing policy? So even if the i386-patch would have been created and tested it hadn't been released before the patches for generic- and 64bit-kernels had been created and released?
