Looks like the Ethernet interface might be doing bad things. Both
crashes are at the same point in its interrupt handler. I'm not sure
whether this is a cause or merely a symptom though.

I'll take a look. Meanwhile, can you put a different card in that
machine? For example, we know that 3com 3c905's are good. 3c595 is a
relic. :-)
