Alex, I believe we talked via email. Your bug is valid, and should be reported here, and even mentioned in the wiki, but You make the consequences seem far more serious than they really are. Let's work to find a fix for the problem rather than telling everyone not to use a specific distribution. There are several people with your hardware using Intrepid, and thus, I think this may only effect a specific subset of all MacBookPro3,1 users.
