Yup; you're going to have that problem with 2.6.16, because they went off =

and moved things into different sections.  Worse, if the kernel is compiled =

with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA, then on some platforms the system call table will =

actually be stored in read-only pages, and attempts to update it will =

result in a panic.

We've been doing some work to update osi_probe to deal with this situation, =

but Chaskiel did most of the work and all of the code on this issue, and at =

4am I'm not awake enough to page in the current state.

We probably should do something about getting updated syscall table probing =

code back into Arla.
