Run gitk on the kernel archive, wait for it to finish reading commit changesets, scroll to the middle, and watch all the pretty (NOT) superfluous vertical lines appear and disappear pseudo-randomly.

Looks like something in there (TK or even X11, most likely) cuts off screen coordinates after 16 bits ..?
