April 28 builds, but won't run unless you add the following line to std.nslu2 (before you build the kernel):
options     KERNEL_BASE_EXT=0xc0000000
The result is 3 errors in 144 successive MD5 computations.

While it is definite that there is a problem with 20080428 (and all later kernels), it is less sure that there isn't a problem with 20080427. I think Andy Ruhl was planning to build this version and test it as well.

That suggests fairly strongly that you may want to try building
earlier kernels from the matt-armv6 branch...

I'm certainly happy to do that if somebody can suggest a snapshot worth building. It takes long enough that I don't think I want to just do it randomly. :-) Also, I don't know how to retrieve a kernel from another branch ... :-(.
