I've experienced a hard lockup on Sunday running a self-compiled 2.2.15
(rsync'd on Sunday from pmac-stable) on my 400 Mhz Pismo with 64 MB RAM. The
machine was up for about 12 hours and it happened during high CPU, disk and
network activity (I was downloading several 100 MB from another machine on the
LAN while building a kernel).


Looks like you can add me to the club :-/
