Reiser4 lockups (no oops)

Hi all,
I've been using Reiser4 on a couple of filesystems to give it a shot,
and although it has been working fine for a while I've noticed that
newer versions of the patch cause lockups on my machine. It all started
when I upgraded to the reiser4-for-2.6.13-1.patch.gz from
reiser4-for-2.6.12-3.patch.gz, which works fine. I've also tested a
vanilla 2.6.14-rc4-mm1 which has the same symptoms.
I don't get any OOPSes or BUGs or anything, not on my screen nor on my
serial console (although I'm not sure I have this working right--I only
seem to get kernel boot messages). Machine replies to pings but I can't
SSH, and the watchdog doesn't kick in (hangcheck or w83627hf_wdt) so I
only notice it's crashed when I wake up in the morning. The crashes seem
most lilkely to occur in periods of heavy I/O -- large Samba file
transfers or updatdb do the trick.
Anything I can do to try and track down the issue?
Thanks,
Chris
