Ok, so it sounds like this was an unrelated extension problem. The original crash reported has so far only been reproduced on systems running 2.6.11, which is not a release kernel. I'm therefore downgrading this bug; unless someone (preferably the original reporter, so that we know we're talking about the same bug!) can show a backtrace running on a kernel that's targetted for sarge release, I recommend closing the report.
