I wasn't running with pre-emption however I have updated to the CVS
version since it appears to have quite a lot of changes compared to the
one I was using.

Unfortunately I am still seeing a crash when the 'cube starts to swap a
little.

The bulk of the crash info is the same as before but I have observed a
different stack. Although the top is similar the bottom half looks less
broken than the other.
