That kernel is pretty old (almost 2 years). In fact, that kernel has a
known memory corruption bug that can crop up under those conditions, so
at the very least you want to patch up to the latest -55.0.z kernel.

Even better would be to patch to something in the RHEL 4.7 series since
those kernels have a lot of other fixes as well.
