There have been some crashes reported; and some even fixed. As such you are encouraged to try a (much) newer kernel because 2.6.18 is outside the scope of the -stable team.
Yeah I know it's old.. but it's the only standard/supported kernel in Redhat Enterprise Linux 5 (and CentOS 5).
I guess the best option would be to somehow figure out what the actual bug is, get (or make) a patch for it, and sent it for inclusion in RHEL 5.x errata kernels..
