Yep.
Turns out it did more than the commit message states,
it caused regressions with a misdetection of memory on some systems,
rendering them unbootable...
There is atleast 3 fixes for the issues this patch created queued in the
upcoming 3.6.5...

</I>
Of course the bug could be another one too, but that one was the first
that came to mind....
