@Cesare: Yes, that patch is what addresses the lockup issue. This issue is a race-condition, and generally ocurrs during startup, only (if at all). On some systems it appears to be triggered much more frequently than on others. For the vast majority of users it never showed up or only rarely (but one user reported frequent lockups). In addition this has been a long-standing bug, so I guess it's not terribly important overall, and a simple rebuild may be good enough for hardy.
