There's another hotfix there now:

ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.18-rc5/2.6.18-rc5-mm1/hot-fixes/revert-acpi-mwait-c-state-fixes.patch

If that doesn't prevent the crash, please try to get a trace out of it
somehow?

Yes, one of my machine does that when it crashes too. It makes the crash
information scroll off the screen in about half a second, which isn't very
kernel-developer-friendly.
