I believe that Tor's commit on August 30th resolved the PAE-related problems, so there is no need for a reversion. Since that time, I've seen three panics posted: 1. Some netinet/ related panic which I couldn't make heads or tails of, and I haven't any followup reports from the poster. 2. Maxim's buildworld -j64 memory kmap entry exhaustion panic, which can be fixed by increasing the number of kmap entries. (Tor has a patch for this, I will probably commit it soon.) 3. A panic caused by sending 64K-1 ping packets, which I can't reproduce. (There's also a small problem with if_xl on pentium-1 machines, but since it's my fault and I'm waiting on test results from a guy, we won't talk about it.) (Hey, anyone have a pentium-200 and a 3com 905B card? Contact me, further testing can't hurt.) So, as far as I can tell, there are no remaining problems related to PAE; I believe that most people are venting frustration that built up between August 9th and 30th.
