2.0.30 and problems on Linux/Alpha

I'm running RedHat 4.2 with a custom compiled 2.0.30, running on a DEC
Multia 166Mhz Alpha w/ 32MB of RAM. It runs without a hitch unless I
use it for its main purpose -- Usenet news server. After the server
runs for several hours, I will get this below. Any suggestions or hints
on how to track this down and solve it? I'm new at kernel problem
tracking, but need to solve this :)
