This bug seems to be Ubuntu-kernel (or Ubuntu-modules) specific however... I can reboot into System Rescue CD, which uses 2.6.24, and do very large rsync backups via smb and nfs without any trouble. I have seen some kernel updates appear in backports since I last tried, however, so I should update and try again.
