Neat. I updated one of my VMs running debian Sid from 2.6.32 kernel to 3.2.0-1-686-pae just to see if it would work. It works on the 3.2 kernel. Kind of scary. I checked to see if I had access to any 'real world' servers running and exploitable kernel and none of them seemed to.

Yulp >=2.6.39 :-)

Strangely, it doesn't work inside of screen. I'd bet that it's because of the parent ID?
