Thanks for a bug number although I see
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000000
instead of "invalid opcode", followed by further recursive oopses
and memory obviously messed up beyond recognition. I attached
what I got to bz 457598.

That really does not matter in my case. In both cases the same
problems show up.

p.s. A "new-and-improved" bugzilla seems to be quite messed up.
It forgets logins, location of attachements and who knows what
else. A good question if it "remembered" to add CC to me even
if this was clearly selected. So far nothing showed so possibly
this was forgotten too and I had to login four times in a row
to add attachments/comments. Did anybody test that thingy before
deploying?
