Definitely a bug. Linux used to have lousy clustering, which would
result in the NFS server being hit harder during writes, but I
think this has been fixed. It shouldn't kill the server either
way. Have you tried compiling the debugger into the kernel and
using ctl-alt-esc when it is wedged?
(You'll find details of how to do this in the handbook.)
