We really do need:
. the panic message
. backtrace
. cvsup time
. scheduler (ULE or BSD)
. if PREEMPTION is enabled in the kernel config
. mysql version
. thread package mysql was compiled with

propagate_priority() is a canary for other problems so the backtrace is
especially important.

How did you determine it was this commit that is causing your problem?
