I ran memtest86 for an hour today, and I'll have to add a badram option to 
grub. This problem might simply be related to bad memory.

 Unfortunately not. I posted an update already. A couple of hours after I
 installed the new version, X crashed. Details are on
 http://bugs.debian.org/284567

Yeah, sorry. I saw that after I replied.

 I am certainly not qualified to judge the cause of this problem, I can
 only tell you I do not see these problems in 2.4.26. In the previous
 version of 2.4.27, I was able to duplicate the problem much faster
 (simply untarring a big file or watching a couple of digital camera
 photos with feh was enough before to trigger the kernel paging request
 error).
 
 Sorry I can't be of more help, I am certainly willing to test more if
 necessary.

That might make some sense. There don't seem to be many reports of
this kernel crashing the way you describe. So it would stand to
reason that some hardware problem is at fault.
