It's a particular scenario, and I've been doubtly about it, but indeed it seems that it's safe (at least by design).

I apologize. However, I'm having difficulty understanding your meaning here.

There are 376kB of free pages, so it's strange that it can't satisfy this request.

I agree. However, this is the only instance where we've been able to reproduce a crash with a non-bs2 patched kernel. Other than this, the bs1 patches have been very stable.

What can we do to further diagnose this? Alternatively, should we try a different guest kernel version or set of patches?
