I've been seeing this bug for a while, too. I think it was introduced right 
after the 2832 build back in Feb. (Since rawhide kernel changelogs do not 
correlate version with entries like every other package does, I can't be 
certain.) I've shown it to people, but no one's really figured out what's 
causing it. The machine has 2 ethernet cards, one connected and one not. 
Virtually any network activity like "yum update" is enough to cause the 
problem. With hardware like I have, no rawhide kernel has been usable for 2 
months.
