After the latest upgrade to the latest mysql-server-5.1 package,

Are you sure that this isn't a hardware issue?
You're the only one seeing this problem, hence I'm reducing it's
severity.
If it was a hardware issue, shouldn't I have the same issue with 5.1.37-2?
Anyway, trying to reproduce the issue, I did aptitude unhold mysql-server-5.1
and then a safe-upgrade:
# aptitude safe-upgrade
...
The following packages will be upgraded:
mysql-server-5.1
The following packages are RECOMMENDED but will NOT be installed:
libhtml-template-perl
1 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 0B/11.0MB of archives. After unpacking 8,192B will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n/?]
