I do not work more on this stuff because I am awaiting patch that 
Randolph (always iirc) should still have in its tree to change the 
management of exception (which Matthew assumes to never occur in kernel 
mode iirc) (sorry but I just spend half an hour to find back this thread 
but without success :( )
