Don't know why a 3.3.5 kernel would have deadlocked; don't think there
are any known issues that would cause that, unless there are Mikrotik
specific patches that caused the problem.

I believe the bug from the 2008 leap second was present in kernels in
2.4 up through 2.6.26 (although Red Hat at least patched it in their
older version long-term support kernels).


3.3 was listed as buggy in this regard as well.
