OSX user here, new version is working steadily for 15 mins now, no more running wild behavior. I will keep it going for a day and see what happens, but I believe you fixed it, thanks! Do you use a variant of your original kernel again, or this this still phatk?

BTW I am still using Snow Leopard since I don't believe in 1.0 OS versions. Can anyone confirm the miner working on Lion?

It never really was pure phatk to begin with. I tried to phatk-arize the existing kernel, but it ended up causing more work and problems than it was worth. It is still phatk-ized, but in a way that properly uses the technique (something phateus himself doesn't yet).
What technique is that?  Oh!  And hey, what do you think of compressing the initial tables by utilizing the difference between the current and previous values in the table instead of the actual values?  I know that it might add a slight overhead on the addition/subtraction, but it would decrease the amount of memory that would need to be read before running the calculations and might allow for another unroll or two.
