There, I've identified a bug, confirmed it's reproducible and how,
established the culprits involved but to summarize:


identified bug:
Kernel Panic --not syncing fatal exception in interrupt

how it's reproducible:
Start mplayer to watch a video or 
vlc with infrared enabled or
$ irrecord -d /dev/usb/hiddev0 -H macmini output_conf_file

culprits involved:
lirc
ath5k

workaround:
sudo rmmod ath5k
Don't use the remote

comments:
The bug exists upstream
The bug possibly seems to have existed since 3.8

Now I don't know what ath5k has to do with infrared but there's little
doubt in my mind that there is a conflict between it and lirc
functionality.

Let me know if this is going to be taken care of else I'll take it
upstream with the atheros and lirc people.

Thanks
