When my 'ifup eth' script was fired multiple times and ran concurrent on my laptop, for some obscure /etc scripting reason, it was revealed that the store_enabled() function in netconsole doesn't handle it nicely, as recorded by the Oops below (a syslog paste, but not mangled too much to prevent from discerning the traceback). On Linux 3.10.4, this patch seeks to remedy the problem, and it has been running stable on my laptop for a few days.
