Well, I added BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER to the kernel config I had which contained
all the other stuff (WITNESS etc...). The end result...

...it no longer crashes :-(

I am not sure what to make of that! Wat could adding this to the kernel
possibly do which would make my problems go away ? Should I try just
adding this option to my GENERIC kernel and seeing if that also gives me
something stable ?
