I'm not aware of anything, no.

First thing to do is to test a more recent kernel, see if we already
fixed it.  Latest mainline would be good.  linux-next would be better. 
2.6.26-rc2-mm1 (hopefully a couple of hours away) would be best.

If we haven't fixed it then I'm afraid our best shot would be for you
to run a bisection (please).
