The solution to this sort of problem tends to appear once similar reports show a common element. Have the -ac kernels been tried on this problem setup? Several corruption bugs were spotted in the series and are fixed in the 2.2.11 prepatches. If the problem still isn't fixed, comparing kernel config options against two similar machines may be of immense value -- options like quota being used can sometimes have a significant impact on normal codes.
