stable release.

I was just trying to reproduce a kernel bug that happened under xen. In
the process, I found issues trying to use it, did some debugging, and
reported as much information as I could.

and why this automatic triage is needed. I appreciate your time
maintaining such an important software under Debian.

Thanks.
