That kernel is part of the current Debian stable release (5.0, codename
"lenny"). This does not necessarily mean that the kernel is stable in the
sense of not crashing; it means that we make minimal changes to it to fix
important bugs and to add support for new hardware. However, we hope that
this approach means there are few bugs in the kernel that can cause it to
crash.

That may be the position of the OpenVZ project.
