Hi people,
That was smooth as silk. It turns out that removing the old speakup
package did not silence speech output, so doing that before the actual
upgrade was possible, and also necessary, since pacman wouldn't install
the new kernel while the old speakup was still there.
No issues so far, but my uptime is now only 4 minutes and 6 seconds.

Yeah, with Arch and its rolling updates, it is harder to keep the
system up for as long as some people claim given the frequency of
kernel updates. But that's a small price to pay to have a current
system. I wonder how many other non Arch users are using a 2.6.37 kernel
today.
