OK, worried. This is a huge bug. But afaik you're the only person
who has
hit it, so there must be something special in your setup which is
triggering it. This could be hard.


OK here is what I get with the git16 kernel. On boot I get this error:

PCI: Not using MMCONFIG
PCI: BIOS Bug: MCFG area at f0000000 is not reserved in ACPI motherboard
resources
PCI: Not using MMCONFIG


yeah, mmconfig is a problem. It should be harmless. Probably you're
better off with it disabled ;)


Attached is a complete log after this boot


I see no 'segfault' messages in there?


Since this last boot I have only got these:

May 1 16:26:25 kernel: gnome-power-man[3112]: segfault at 0 ip 410fda
sp 7fff4712c870 error 4 in gnome-power-manager[400000+47000]
May 1 16:26:25 kernel: gnome-power-man[3116]: segfault at 0 ip 410fda
sp 7fff2959cce0 error 4 in gnome-power-manager[400000+47000]
May 1 16:26:25 kernel: gnome-power-man[3119]: segfault at 0 ip 410fda
sp 7fffc7671db0 error 4 in gnome-power-manager[400000+47000]

Are you using stack protector? How could we tell?
I don't see it in the kernel log.

Also, please post your kernel .config file.
