Have you tested all of your physical RAM?  I'd check this first before
diving deeper into the kernel.

I had a similar problem once and found that if I moved a DIMM to a different
slot everything was fine.  Took me almost a year to figure out that that was
the problem... for 6 months I ran with half my RAM installed.

There's some free memory testers you can "boot" into that do a decent job.
