With the "echo 100 > /proc/sys/kernel/printk_delay" command run by
/etc/rc.d/rc.local, while still on 2.6.36-rc1-00127-g763008c, I got
these:

Hope the above help.

And by the way, I think you are correct that this is a
post-2.6.35 thing, because 2.6.35.2 was the first to give
me this kind of problems, and I can confirm that 2.6.34
does not have it, because the system was on 2.6.34.4 for
the last 12 hours without problems, then just a moment ago
crashed on 2.6.36-rc1-00127-g763008c, and now back on
2.6.34.4

P.S. Shouldn't "echo 100 > /proc/sys/kernel/printk_delay" be
somewhere on the "How to debug a crashing kernel guide"
somewhere?

Thanks!
