Interesting. I'll see what I can find in /var/log/messages and share anything that might point to the problem. Thanks for writing.
Here's what the logs show...

In this time period Xorg crashed twice. Earlier in the log (on July 15th and 14th) I have similar records (which correlate with the other crashes) but there is no "Exiting" line. These were times where I had to reboot to get the machine back into a working state.
It looks like it has something to do with an XML lock?
