OK, so we conclude that you should not attempt SMP on that machine..

Now that's a different story. Are you very sure? To me, this implies
either (a) broken hardware, (b) subtle fs corruption, (c) kernel bug.
Dunno which to go for, but (c) seems rather unlikely :-)
Can you reproduce it at will or is it just one particular pair of
files? Can you reproduce on different filesystems?
