host kernel 3.8.x shows that problem,
reproducible here with uml guests 3.7.10, 3.8.2 and 3.9-rc1+

host kernel 3.7.10 does not suffer from this problem.

I reported that to this list already because IMHO it is local
exploitable security flaw (if it can be reproduced at others systems
too), and  neither sudo nor any privileges are necessary to halt a
system. FWIW neither sys-rq nor any other key works, nothing in the
syslog, at the console or anything seen on the screen.
