OK, I've uploaded some new kernel rpms to the same site as before.  This 
should fix the oops problem on 64 bit arches.  There still isn't ppc 
support and I don't think we are going to implement that for this update 
due to testing issues (namely, I don't know what ppc hardware would even 
work with mthca cards and I can't test it, I'm just not a ppc 
knowledgable guy).  If anyone out there is using ppc hardware and mthca 
controllers and would like support for this enabled, please drop me an 
email and let me know what arch variant you need support for (the 
ppc64iseries in particular is the real killer since it doesn't allow 
__raw_readl/__raw_writel that the mthca driver uses and since I don't 
have an iseries machine I can't test possible alternatives for doing the 
io).
