Thx for your report. I looked a little bit at the the call stack but it is 
really hard to guess the functions when you don't have the symbol table. It 
looks a little bit like most of the functions are kernel thread/scheduling 
related. Only one function <c00c8650> is  from a module. Can you please send 
the /proc/modules file so we can find in which module it is so we can check if 
it could be a batgat related. Further investigations could be done by checking 
the symbols of batgat.ko with nm - but this would not help very much because 
it is stripped down. Maybe someone else has a good idea.

Now to something you said on the nightwing mailing list:

If you mean me (Lazhur on irc) then I have to say that I am not a developer 
nor a spokesman of b.a.t.m.a.n. and I never confirmed that it is batgat related 
- only that something crashed/lock up.
I cannot find any crash related bug fixes in the batgat trunk directory - so it 
doesn't seem to be a known problem (if it is a batgat problem at all).
