pmap_pagealloc fail / screen

[Riccardo Mottola <riccardo.mottola%libero.it@localhost>]

Hi,

I have left my faithful 715 updating many packages, I left screen 
running, so I can detach and reattach.
I cannot attach anymore: I see screen and cc are running, the machine 
works, but "screen -R" hangs.

The only thing I can see are many messages:

pmap_pagealloc fail
pmap_pagealloc fail
pmap_pagealloc fail
pmap_pagealloc fail

if I launch top I see:

load averages:  1.47,  1.36,  1.32;               up 2+12:59:17

so the machine is running, there is plenty of swap free and screen is 
still there.
