This is a warning only (2.6.9 had the swap token breakage that triggered
suprious oom kills, so the warning was meant to get more info), can you
try with the kernel of the day?

It has my latest oom fixes that I recently posted to l-k and it should
be very reliable for the first time in oom-killer terms.
