Okay, thank you. I managed to test 2.6.38.8 and 2.6.39.4 today and the issue
is reproducible on both. Shall I test further in the past?

I also got a reply from the Ubuntu bugreport where someone claims he doesn't
experience the issue on current 32-bit Ubuntu 11.10, even though he did
experience it in older versions. I have no idea why that may be so, as they
have the same firmware as I have, and the kernel is 3.0 with almost no
modifications to the iwlagn driver.

I hope that you'll be able to reproduce the issue and fix it. Sadly, I still
haven't got a better reproducer. What I was doing today was running make clean
&& make -j4 in a while loop, having an active Skype videocall and browsing the
web while waiting for it to crash. Sometimes it took a few minutes, sometimes
more than an hour.
