I've checked it out, but I don't see anything relating to c7 or c9 in
the System.map or any loaded symbols from modules.

Also, just because I get a "Detected potential for stack overflows"
message doesn't mean my box should blow up does it? I don't think it
should, especially after doing more resaerch on google groups, seems
like the messages are just warnings, but not necessarily fatal. 

Also, the 2.4.19-aa1 XFS code is a bit old from my understanding anway,
but we've been using it for a *very* long time, and actually still use
2.4.10 kernels on some boxes, and that code is even older, without any
XFS related problems. 

Does that seem about sane?
