How long ago was that, and which kernel? It seems to have been due to an
unfortunate interaction between the Berkeley DB and a kernel bug, which
was fixed in 2.6.19.

It was on 2.6.18-1.2868.fc6 and was a few days ago (I had not updated
it for a few weeks).

How would a kernel bug cause a problem with an application like Berkeley DB?
