Watchdog - i8xx_tco and reboots

Finally giving x86 Rawhide a go (refreshing after lots of PPC?), I got
the tree from 0911, and popped in on a box with the GIGABYTE
'8I845GVM-RZ' i845GV

No glory for me, as the box kept on rebooting in the starting stages -
this means it stayed on for >60s but died <120s

So, the new workaround is:
	* boot into single user mode
	* rmmod i8xx_tco
	* Ctrl+d
	* Enjoy Rawhide

Is anyone else noticing these problems? Bugzilla seems rather silent
about this...
