I recompiled with 2.91.66. Unfortunately I have managed to create a unbootable
(drops into kdb because of a unrelated problem) 
kernel now, and it seems Lilo's serial console entry got lost. I'm at home,
far away from the box, nobody at work, so I cannot test anymore for tonight.

P.S.: at least the new backtracer in kdb looks much better than the old.
Unfortunately that does not help :-(. Sorry.
