looks like you are right, enabling NAPI in 2.6.7 does trigger this.
what exactly is this?
A bug in the driver. I have a hunch: please try this patch with 2.6.9 or higher:

bingo, that fixes it. too bad neither this patch nor the removal of the NAPI config option made it into 2.6.11...
also, does this affect the e1000 driver in any way?
No. e1000 is a totally different driver/device with very similar name.
too bad, i was hoping for an explanation for some unexplainable crashes i've been experiencing... ;)
