Can you email me a copy of your kernel config? archstats looks for the config file in this order: 1) /usr/src/linux/.config, 2) /proc/config, or 3) /proc/config.gz. The first config file found is the one that you should email to eric@archlinux.org.

I have the same problem as the one who reported this bug.

The kernel config files I have are:
/usr/src/linux-2.6.10-ARCH/.config
/proc/config.gz

If the reporter do not send you the config, tell me so I can send you mine.

Btw. the problem begins with arch linux kernel 2.6.10. Previous versions do not have the problem.

I've sent the requested config files to Eric Johnson. You may want to contact Eric Johnson directly about whether or not to send him additional config files.

The config file Win sent me helped me find the bug. I've got an update ready, I just need to build it and update the extra repo. Thanks guys.
