Just a word of caution; strange as it seems your problem could still be
hardware, not the kernel.

Example: We had a Pentium with a knackered CPU fan. 1.2.13 ran solidly
(kernel compiles etc.) for 2 weeks+, but more recent kernels would
invariable OOPS all over the place when firing up daemons at boot-up.
