can you please file a bug report with this info.

Everything else on the server experiences no problems, nothing odd in the systems log files and the memory came out just fine in a memtest. We didn't even notice it until we saw the diskspace usage grow with a few spikes. The core dumps were about 5 gigabytes each, the latest just 500 megabytes but they all show the same backtrace.
