I will check this tomorrow.

quick update:

d4e4b3520c4df46cf1d15a56379a6fa57e267b7d, locks up, tried two times


404849bbd2bfd62e05b36f4753f6e1af6050a824 + 3 buildfixes:

31df1678d7732b94178a6e457ed6666e4431212f

This one has the syscall changes, but not the two fixes you mentioned.
It gets far, but at the point where it locks up with the d4eb, it
crashes in run_timer_softirq, branched to 0x1f4. Maybe its the result of
the missing fixes. Will continue tomorrow.
