Meelis and Aaro, thanks again for all of your reports.

After pouring over a lot of the data and auditing some code I'm
suspecting it's a problem with transparent huge pages.

One thing you two can do to help me further confirm this is to run
with THP disabled for a while and see if you still get the log
messages.

Simply, as root:

bash# echo "never" >/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled

And then do your gcc bootstraps or whatever else seems to usually
run when you trigger this problem.

Thanks!
