I've just got a dual-CPU machine up and running.  I've installed 0.5.4 it, and 
the kernel in 0.5.4 was compiled with Gcc 2.96 which, I have been told, is an 
acceptable workaround.  With both CPU's enabled on that machine though it's 
as unstable as a chocolate fire-poker, locking up at random and applications 
which just do not start up.  It looks like a much more general problem with 
SMP and Syllable 0.5.3/0.5.4  I havn't the faintest what could be causing it.
