Hi,

I've found a weird bug that seems to only happend in my system. It makes
recursive makes segfault, like:

test:
( make -v )

After a lot of work tracking it I finally found what causes it, I'm attaching
the patch that generates the bug, it's a diff from 2.5.18 to 2.5.19.

I'm saying it's weird because just adding a printk before do_execve returns
successfully makes the bug dissapear.

BTW, yes, my system is very special.
