It _appears_ that there is a race in the kernel that can be triggered by
any number of hardware issues. There's another thread by Gregory Stark
with the same symptoms - he thinks his was fixed by replacing a bad
DIMM.

i`d like to mention that we may have a repro-case (if it`s the same issue i hit within vmware):

see http://communities.vmware.com/message/909403
