This sort of thing is very difficult to debug.  My suggestions would be:
- Check for flaky hardware - maybe run memtest86 overnight.
- Run one of the following:
  while sleep 5; do date; vmstat -m; done
  while sleep 5; do date; netstat -m; done
  top
  systat -v 2
  on a VTY or a serial console and see when it's dying and what was
  happening shortly before.
- Check if anything unusual (cron jobs or unusual external activity)
  happens at the time it dies.
- You may be able to debug a frozen system via firewire

I don't recall this particuar problem being reported.  That said, you
appear to be running a 9 month old -stable - have you considered
updating to either 6.2 or a more recent -stable?
