ah, OK. What happens if you do a `patch -R -p1' using
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.0-test6/2.6.0-test6-mm1/broken-out/call_usermodehelper-retval-fix-2.patch ?

That fixes up the problem here as well. Also, note that it wasn't just
the Synaptics driver:

The ifup was probably attached to either a wireless or Xircom ethernet card,
the net.agent was probably from a PPP connection starting up (based on the PID
of the process).
