I have a clear idea now what's needed to integrate the OOM
killing stuff into the kernel in a clean way. Since I'll be
travelling the next few days and maybe won't have access to
the net (and hence, can't take big MM decisions without the
others) I'll probably play around to get the thing intergrated
in both the latest 2.2 and 2.4 kernels.

Rik
