I can confirm this bug is present in v2.6.37, and not in v2.6.36.
It seems to trigger quite randomly, I think in less than 2-3 hours after
the boot (sometimes in half an hour), and it leaves no trace in my log
files.

As Stephen said, most of the times the screen shows later oopses triggered
by this one, so it is not easy to identify it either.
