@Unhban: That's been my experience. I haven't had a freeze since
upgrading to the 2.6.30 kernel several weeks ago.

It's unfortunate I had to find the fix outside of the Ubuntu
repositories, but that seems to be consistent with the way Ubuntu has
been failing to handle this bug. It took something like 2 months for
this thing to even be triaged and given some priority. In the meantime,
thousands of Ubuntu users have been dealing with freezes and, if the
forums and Twitter are any indication, a lot of people have left Ubuntu
for other distros as a direct result of this bug. Once I can clear out a
few days, I'll probably jump to Debian after 2.5 years of being a happy
Kubuntu user.
