That's not a crash - it's a hang. And it's the low memory problem
w.r.t. allocation of the in-core extent list being reallocated
and memory reclaim being allowed to re-enter the filesystem.

This was recently fixed by this commit:

http://git2.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=6785073ba138a2f0dc575c332c1812b713670b6a

in 2.6.27-rc4.

Cheers,

Dave.
