these are both fixed in 2.0.32-pre4 and 2.1.63. The 2.0.32-pre4 stuff seems
very solid, though the f00f bug fix is not proper for SMP machines yet. It
looks like 2.0.32-pre5 fixes the f00f bug on SMP machines properly. All of
these are available on ftp.kernel.org:
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/testing/pre-patch-2.0.32-5.gz
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.1/linux-2.1.63.tgz

Something not being where it should be does not necessitate it being where
it doesn't belong.
