No, it doesn't. In fact, it makes you notice the problem faster, so it

Or by trying to open it, which is the way I choose in 0.4-3 which
fixes this problem in, I think, quite a good way. At least I'm happy
with this solution; if there's anything better to do, don't hesitate.

I'll investigate further the kernel side of the MCE handling when I'll
