Shoot, oh well it was a long shot. This sort of panic usually
occurs long after the corruption has occured, and I was hoping that
the contigmalloc fix I had made on Nov 10th had fixed the last
occurance of this sort of bug. It definitely fixed something since
DR's test machines are now a lot more stable. So if the kernel you
installed on this box is from sources dated before Nov 10th then the
problem could be that contigmalloc bug, otherwise it's some other bug.
If you can get a dump it may help, else try to get a dump the next
time it happens.
