That seems to have done it.  Built several kernels back-to-back, no
oops.

Now if I could just get this to go away:

Timer ISR/1: Time went backwards: delta=-169458624 cpu_delta=1110558976
shadow=57067465250 off=133093726 processed=57370017600
cpu_processed=56090000000
 0: 57370017600
  1: 56090000000

Anyone else with a dual-opteron see this?  It shows up on everything
(x86_64 UP, x86_32 UP/SMP).
