Most of all, I would have liked to see this bug report dead long ago.
But resolved, not closed because of age.

Ideally, you would have received a reply with request for a testcase
or two soon after you reported it, and we could have reported it
upstream. The point is, we're not blaming you for anything. The bug
has been reported well, and the only reason it wasn't followed up is
lack of manpower (in this case, I'm using this standard text for many
old bug reports).

While the attached information was relevant at that time, it no longer
is. One way of keeping the bug report alive would be to update it with
the same information for the newest Ubuntu (for this kind of bug we
would actually have needed it with newer mainline kernels). However,
at this point it is better with a new bug report, since we then
wouldn't need to carry all the now outdated stuff.

I'm surprised that switching from 32bit to 64bit made a difference.
For most bugs it doesn't matter.

PS: You may be able to help on the manpower problem by help triaging
similar bugs.
