From: Christian Leber <christian@leber.de>

Ky box (2.6.9-final) was yesterday completly stalled (mouse movable and
stupid loadmeter was still working) after starting mutt and was swapping
for half an hour until I sent SIGTERM to all processes.  I suspect it was a
2 GB big galeon process that was the problem.

I think sysrq needs a key to call oom_kill manually.
