Version 2.4.4, 2003-01-18
- Fixed a context-switch bug where an interrupt-mode counter could increment unexpectedly, and also miss the overflow interrupt.
- Fixed some ugly log messages the new HT P4 support code added in perfctr-2.4.3 could generate at driver initialisation time.
- Added preliminary support for AMD K8 processors with the regular 32-bit x86 kernel. The K8 performance counters appear to be identical or very similar to the K7 performance counters.

Whilst there are some that are the same, there are additionally a bunch of new counters. I'll be adding support for these to oprofile next week, so keep your eyes open 8-)
