This gives a new clue, changing my opinion that this bug is related to
the intel drivers. First, there where many clues (crash happens while
enumerating modelines, reported by intel users). However, if some of you
agree my conclusions, we may close this bug for this package:

1) The fix linked by the comment above gives strong clue that this bug
is related to the synaptics driver

2) The corrupted structure, a list node with a bad next pointer, is
accessed via a list iteration as it seems, so the damage done by the
synaptics driver may result in a crash anytime this list is iterated.
It's maybe the intel driver that triggers this trap, but it is not it's
fault then.

3) The crash with the same circumstances (some minutes after resume)
also occurs directly after enabling the synaptics touchpad for some
people, like in this report: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=681796

SoI add the synaptic driver package here.
