"I noticed you upgraded to Oneiric on 2011-09-28. Were you having this issue 
before you upgraded?"
I'm almost certain that I did a fresh install from a daily image instead of 
upgrading from Natty. 
I can't tell when the bug started to occur since I usually never disconnect the 
NTFS disk.
If it is to any help, I could download and run a live CD of Natty and test?

"I believe you confirmed this only happens with NTFS?"
When I excluded ext4 and fat32 I used a USB stick to do some quick testing. I 
now did some new tests with the same USB stick and I found that regardless of 
the file system used (tested ext2/3/4, fat, ntfs), the system didn't freeze 
when the stick was safely removed. Of course I should have taken the time to 
test the stick with NTFS from the start. Sorry for the confusion.
I can therefore no longer say that it is NTFS only since I can only reproduce 
the freeze using my external hard drive (which I unfortunately cannot reformat 
and test with other file systems).

I've tested with the upstream kernels that you gave me and I could not
boot any kernels at all from 3.0.5 up to 3.1rc9. I never came past the
plymouth screen. After booting into onerics  kernel again, I received
the paging request error from Apport mentioned above by Nicolás.
