Picked up the 2.6.32-24 kernel when updating today - system continues to run without freezes as long as irqbalance disabled, as I reported back in June.
However I then re-enabled irqbalance as an experiment, straight back to the immediate freezes at logon time as in the bug description. Disabled irqbalance again, and all is well.
So the bug is still there, and the workaround is still effective.
