I was looking at newly released 2.6.15.4, and found this in the log:

[PATCH] bridge: fix RCU race on device removal
Patch to 2.6.15 stable kernel to fix race conditions on device
removal. These are reproducible by doing delif while packets are
in flight.

[PATCH] bridge: netfilter races on device removal
Fix bridge netfilter to handle case where interface is deleted
from bridge while packet is being processed (on other CPU).

Indeed, since you are shutting down a guest instance when getting the crash,
it is _possible_ that an interface is brought down on the host (even if with
bridging it's strange this happens), so these bugs *may* be fixed by those
patches.
Hope it helps!
