Per Andreas suggestion, I loaded the .35-2 kernel from testing. My box will boot 
past the UTF-8 line and runs well. Also relevant to 
http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/20200, compiz now works the way it is supposed to 
in .35.

What changes were there between 2.6.34 and 2.6.35 that could have caused this? I 
hate having an issue this severe that gets fixed without understanding what was 
broken in the first place. Tobias, anybody know what the candidate changes were?
