What version of procps? (dpkg --status procps)
Did you recently change from an older kernel without updating procps?
(The /proc/meminfo format has changed a couple times.)
For example, I have kernel 2.2.14 and procps 2.0.6-5 (Debian package
version).
Or you can try using gdb to look at any core dump or strace to see what
top is doing.
