Hah!
I haven't seen Mark post any follow-ups to this, but I have some more information of my own.
Mark, are you running the IPW2200 drivers, by any chance? I'm pretty sure that's what is causing the lock-ups on my end; that, or something in the the kernel's wireless handlers.
I did hook up an ethernet cable and started doing netconsole traces... only then the problem disappeared! To make a long story short, the system is entirely stable when running network over ethernet, but when I use the wireless network interface, it eventually locks up. There are no error messages that I can associate with the wireless device or network traffic.
