The patch only affects Intel processor-based boxes.
Machines in question are intel-based, PIII or Celeron, no "new" processor, though. As I said it cannot be a general problem, maybe it affects P4 machines or so. It doesn't seem to affect the machines with CentOS 4.3 I use.
The interesting figure in your free output is that there are 0 buffers on the RHEL machine.
