Can do, but so far there was no trace of memory error. I can compile 
kernels for days without this bug which hit me for the first time today.
The machine was up for 36 days or so with no other kernel-related 
crash/BUG/etc.
Also the links I posted might point in the direction of a kernel issue?

Kind regards,
Udo
