Where do you see that email address still?  It should have been removed ...

What you see there is debug information to help you diagnose your app's
breakage ;-).  You can turn it off by changing #define PRINT_USER_FAULTS
to #undef PRINT_USER_FAULTS in arch/parisc/mm/fault.c.  I believe the
Debian kernel does this by default.

Eventually crashinig the kernel is a different matter.  Can you provide
more information about this?

conscience-soothing falsities, and will diligently study them, and refuse
to examine any refutations of them; and thus he will by and by convince 
himself that the war is just, and will thank God for the better sleep 
he enjoys after this process of grotesque self-deception." -- Mark Twain
