Confirming the bug. As a workaround, I installed Feisty kernel:

2.6.20-6-generic #2 SMP Wed Jan 31 20:53:39 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux

With the caveat that I haven't done much testing, this kernel seems to fix the problem. The machine is a MythTV backend/frontend, so had to rebuild nvidia modules; ivtv still works; can't get lirc rebuilt...

BTW, I encountered the bug because of a NFS mounted share that stored a music collection. When ripping CD's from a NFS client, the mount would hang after copying approximately 4GB. The NFS server would then lose its network connection.

Many thanks to all who contributed to this bug report. This was/is very frustrating and I could not have determined the problem without you folks.
