:I have a problem on my dual AMD32-bit machine related to deleting files on

:recently, but it only started then and a 4.99.45 kernel built on Dec 28 works 
:fine.
:Basically, the rm process locks up when I rm -rf a large directory.  In this 
:case, the object directory from the build, which I clean up just prior to 
:starting a new build.

This happens to me on dual i386.  However, it may just happen on LFS
not FFS.  I haven't isolated it properly.
