I will further inspect this once I replaced the disk (probably
tonight)...

It's a 2.4.19 kernel with grsecurity, freeswan, and reiserquota
patches.

And in terms of hardware, well, memory seems fine, according to
memtes86, but it turns out that the disk is probably broken. It was
just hard for me to believe that I bought a new IDE disk, checked it
for badblocks, put it in, got segfaults, now checked it again and
found some!!! What has this world come to???
