Ok, so it was more than just 5 minutes for the first exploit to be
found, nothing to be ashamed about :)

Woo-hoo. I'm sure somebody will report a "this doesn't compile, and
I have a new root exploit" five minutes after release, but it still
feels good ;)

Last -rc? That's the plan..

The manatees, they are dancing!

It's that time of the year again.  Summer starts in the US, and people
want to sit at the beach with a new -rc candidate.

This reverts commit c8fdd247255a3a027cd9f66dcf93e6847d1d2f85.

It turns out the kernel was correct, and the gcc complaint was a gcc
bug.  The preferred stack boundary is expressed not in bytes, but in the
the log2() of the preferred boundary, so "-mpreferred-stack-boundary=2"
is in fact exactly what we want, but a gcc that is compiled for x86-64
will consider it an error (because the 64-bit calling sequence says that
the stack should be 16-byte aligned) even if we are then using "-m32" to
generate 32-bit code.
