Thanks, I managed to get that far after googling a bit. I have had some 
problems with the filesystem though. Fixed now (I forgot to compile ext3
in *blush*.) But you might still be interessted in this trace (2.6.11-rc2
with or without my changes):

It could look like a semaphore which should be replaced by a spinlock
(which will become a mutex in preempt-realtime :-)
