I need to do some checking..but as I have read other places ..the fix
for this bug is present in the 2.4.14pre6 release. Hubert may have taken
the code from this pre6 and put it into his .13 kernel. We shall see.
Right now I'm running .10 from the 7.3 update directory on my 7.1 and
7.2 boxes..it seems to not freak out and dump to swap as often as .11,
.12 and .13. Before I switched to .10 today I was running .13-3 and I
was humming along with 0M of swap used and then *BAM* 158M's eaten in
like 3 minutes...everything came to a stand still..which is why I backed
down to .10 ..
