That's good news. Thanks for the update.
Is anybody using the "LEDS" or "watchdog" patches
(https://github.com/aptivate/ischool-net6501-kernel)? I'm using both

That's definitely true on the net6501. However, a small patch

Linux depends on an ACPI BIOS to provide configuration for the HPET.
The net6501 does not support ACPI, so Linux does not use the HPET.
However, I've created a patch (attached) for Linux 3.2 that enables HPET
on the net6501. I've been running with this patch for several months

Unfortunately, no. I don't have anything connected to the second serial port
yet.
Somewhat related, is the internal port at "RS-232" voltage levels, or is it a
TTL/LVTTL level port?

On my Linux 3.2.1 system, the kernel recognizes the additional serial devices
using the "pch_uart" driver. It looks like 3.1 has the same driver. I
recommend confirming that you have the pch_uart module (if not, you may have to
build it from kernel source) and then try "modprobe pch_uart".
http://www.jameco.com carries several candidate fans. Search for "30mm fan".

The Linux core temperature measurements are off because Linux assumes a Tjmax
of 100°C. However, you may fix this with the following line in your
/etc/modules file:
coretemp tjmax=90
After rebooting, you'll see the following in dmesg:

FYI, the new comBIOS 1.41a appears to fix the machine check exception. I
haven't seen it since updating.

I've successfully updated the BIOS with cu on Linux following the Soekris wiki
directions. I don't know if it matters, but I'm using a "real" (i.e. not USB)
serial port and a cable that passes handshaking lines.

Thanks. I'll look for another power supply and try that.
It seems that my disk corruption is related to turning on power management
settings that PowerTop suggested. I'll investigate that later.
