Dear Andi,

It seems that commenting out line 788 in fs/exec.c and recompiling the
kernel solved the problem.

Best wishes,

Odon

The BUG is wrong and can just be removed because its test is by itself racy.


I can do that for the next update kernel. Don't know when that will happen
though. 

You might be able to get an experimental untested kernel rpm with this fix
earlier 
(in a day or two) from
