linux-backports-modules 2.6.27-6.1 appears to fix this issue. I've run
some large file transfer tests that easily caused the iwlagn module that
comes with the kernel now to crash. But now running those tests with
linux-backports-modules installed I no longer see the issue, and it
doesn't crash at all.

I think most would prefer a non crashing module be apart of the regular
kernel and not backports though. Hopefully later this week I'll have
time to get a serial cable and see the crash

I was unable to get the kernel dump from the iwlagn driver as I really
need a thinkpad docking station and getting kernel output out of USB
serial ports seems like an impossible task.
