This works very well indeed. After reinstalling setup and catching up with 1 month of updates, bringing me from uname 1.7.10 to 1.7.11 (which means autorebase MUST have done something, right?) I have just made a moderately large make (of what does not matter) of 48 source files using "make -j" (unlimited parallelism) on a not-so-large PC (dual 2GHz, 2GB) with all the Avast! filters turned on. The system froze nearly solid for 5 minutes but actually completed the build with no fork misses whatsoever. Congrats!
