Dear Giorgos,

Thanks for your suggestion!  The problem has gone away by
backing off to -O1 in kernel and -O2 in userland.  Strange,
because I have been using -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer for a
while now (/usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf notwithstanding)
with ill effects.  My bad.

Sorry, but I can't be more specific on which particular flag
or which particular CVS update caused the problem.  CPU too
slow.

Thanks again,
-- Chris
