/me smacks his forehead

Of course it is.  We already work around that in arch-syscall-validate.  D'oh!

Good news though, I think we just found the bug ;)

I'm currently trying to put out another fire in a different project; as soon 
as I've got that done I'll fix this.  However, if somebody wants to play, I'm 
always happy to accept patches :)
