Yes, I also thought this was the reason at first, but I think the IOAPIC address refers to a physical address, while the allocated memory that memset faults on is at virtual address fec00000, right?
Indeed, but it still gets on my nerves that they share the same address.
2.6.34-rcX has a random memory corruption bug which is showing up as various boot failures. Yinghai has a patch.

This looks pretty deterministic, It fails at exactly the same place for more people.
On the same configuration, this will cause the same failure. Given that virtual envs end up being the same on multiple configurations, I still think this could be the culprit. Maybe it's a good idea to test w/ -rc3 with ipv6 compiled as module or -rc2 w/ only Yinghai's fix applied?
