Recreating a rare crash even when you know the exact conditions that caused the crash is very very difficult. I have been involved in not so rare crashes (we had some machines of the exact same hw type that all crashed randomly about 1x per week). And duplicating that crash tied up a test machine for >30 days before finally duplicated the crash, as we were not able to exactly duplicate the load condition that caused the crash. Typically the crashes are dealt with is by noticing a pattern and using that pattern to try to determine the nature of the failure and how common it is. With a single crash you have no idea if it as a hardware fault or not.
Given the number of crashes we are probably talking about and the number of different kernel versions you are talking about one would need to have an almost infinite hardware budget to even possibly run the test.
