It now seems that I have a somewhat reliable way of reproducing this
issue, using the CLI-based Usenet binary downloader, HellaNZB.
Methodology:

1.  Using  standard Gnome interface, load several NZB files into the
HellaNZB queue folder [NZBs contain references to Usenet binaries for
easy downloading]

2. Drop to text console using ctrl-alt-F1

3. Start HellaNZB, which begins to download the Usenet binaries, and
wait for kernel panic to occur


Using this method, I am able to provide the following updated info:

> 1. Try rebooting to a known working kernel right after reproducing the
problem and see if any backtrace was logged to /var/log/kern.log.0.
Please attach this file if anything was captured.

Based on timestamps, no info was collected in /var/log/kern.log.0
related to the most recent reproduction of this issue.

> 2. When no clues found in /var/log/kern.log.0, supply a digital photo of the 
> screen to capture the crash.
For this, you would need to be in text mode when it happens. If at some point, 
you have a way to reproduce it, just ctrl-alt-f1 to get to the text console, 
and reproduce the bug.
