Well... I couldn't reproduce it and, as a result, I discovered
another difference: 2.6.32 x86 fails also (as well as 2.6.32.9
x86), when I am booting it in EL5u5.  But it succeeds in EL5u4!
Perhaps there is a different nash version between the two?

Sorry if this appears terribly disorganized and disjointed.
I am trying to use two machines with not quite identical
environments so that I can get two other things done during
long kernel compiles.  As a result, I've missed some seemingly
irrelevant details that are turning out to be relevant.
