I am able to analyze the primary bus while the using the card in the
secondary and I see a very interesting thing on lockup - the primary
side appears to be stuck on a read access to the memory mapped control
regs of the LAN chip (82559) in what appears to be infinite target
retries to the same address. Unfortunately I havent been able to
capture what occurs just prior to this happening. This is quite
different from what I capture on the secondary side; which is an idle bus

I have posted the lspci -vv listing below...

Here is the lspci -vv on the machine with lockups (edited for brevity):
