Michael integrated Brian's patch into RC6.

We don't have a way to reproduce and debug bug 233. According to the bug 
description, Michael thought he understood the problem and added a fix 
to the RC6 pre-release. According to your report it didn't solve the 
problem. So, we don't really know how to continue.  Can you debug it? So 
seems it will not be solved for RC6.

For RC6 we still wait for Voltaire fix for iSER on SLES10.

Thanks,  Aviram
