We won't ask.  But, as you might imagine, we do run the gdb test suite on
our kernels, and we haven't seen this.  So you indeed must have hit upon a
lucky combination of hardware and software between that RH kernel and your
Debian userland that happens to bite.

We probably will.  I always used that patch when debugging the kernel
signals code in the past.
