Trying crashkernel on 3.6.0

Hello,

I've set up kexec for launching on panic and a cmdline mentioning
"crashkernel=64M nmi_watchdog=panic"; in linux 3.5, using sysrq-c I could only
get the message of "going to the purgatory", but I was told that there could be
a bug fixed upstream.

In 3.6, I see the purgatory message, then Booting linux, and finally:
PANIC: early exception 0d rip 10:ffffffff813df8b9 error 58b cr2 0

That happens mixed with the previous 80x25 console text I had at the time I
pressed sysrq-c.

Any idea what it can be about?

Regards,
Lluís.
