No, I haven't.  The problem disappeared only for

    while :; do dd if=/dev/zero of=file bs=800 count=1; done

That one-liner was boiled down from the following program, which still
oopses instantly:

    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <unistd.h>
    #include <sys/types.h>
    #include <sys/stat.h>
    #include <fcntl.h>

    int main()
    {
      int fd;
      struct stat st;
      char buf[800];

      do {
        unlink("file2");
        fd = open("file1", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC, 0666);
        stat("file1", &st);
        lseek(fd, 0, SEEK_SET);
        write(fd, buf, 800);
        close(fd);
        rename("file1", "file2");
      } while (1);

      return 0;
    }


(Apologies for spamming.)
