Interestingly, I'm looking at a bug which could be triggered by the
cron jobs that run at this time of day.  It would be interesting to
see if your problem is related.  For this kind of problem we need a
processor dump and a kernel built with debugging symbols.  See the
handbook for more details.  If you get a dump, please save it and
contact me, offline if necessary.
