gentoo-sources is a highly optimized set of patches that give the enduser quite a bit of flexibility - even the ability to choose your vm (aavm or rmap). rmap is the default. did you try this with aavm? otherwise, i think you've found your fix and it was to your sources not mine. as far as blowfish and things changing, we had a bit of redesign in the kernel over the past 2.5 months and things have only improved. blowfish was taken out by the past maintainer inadvertantly when USAGI was added, r2 came out for the ptrace fix only. things have been put back in as of r3 and i do not see anything like this occurring in the future. as of now r5 is pretty solid. sorry if you're the one who uses a piece of software we could not test against as it is not free nor do we have an ebuild or access to it. patches for software like this really needs to come from them. the standard vm we use is backported from 2.5.
