Okay, I left the Edgy live-CD running for some 20 hours straight: I played with 
most applications, and I left it overnight running IO intensive tasks on the 
console.  And guess what: it never panicked.  Also, two nights ago I left 
system running memcheck overnight, and there were no errors reported.
I think it is safe to conclude that the problem isn't hardware.

Important things to take into account:

1) Debian Etch and Lenny are also affected;
2) I know Edgy runs fine; however, since I never upgraded to Feisty, there's a 
chance the problem began there, I just don't know.

Now, I have access to another machine running Gutsy, and I can use to to
cross-compile (different arch) new kernels to try out.  If it would help
you to send me patches and/or kernel configs, please do so!
