I got a message about a kernel bug in dmesg. I found only one reference to a similar issue, a mail to lkml from 2006, but without any reply. If this is a bug and not caused by hw failure, it seems to be triggered very rare.
Gentoo Linux, Kernel is 2.6.23.12 with grsecurity, amd64. It's not reproducible, only appeared once. After that, the system did strange things and wasn't able to reboot, I had to reset manually. If there's anything more I can provide as information, just ask me. Please CC me on replies, as I'm not reading this list.
