Well, since most of the changes in the latest kernels involve networking, trying it with various different network-adapters would be interesting, and stress-testing the network-code in general.
If you have the hardware or a really good confidence, a recent 2.2-kernel to compare with and sufficient knowledge of C, have a look at the network-drivers for a2065 and ariadne, both of which lack the padding-fixes the other adapters have, since I didn't want to touch that mess...
