I can consistently reproduce this bug on my Acer Aspire One AOA150, which also has an Atom N270 plus 1GB of RAM and a 120GB SATA HD.

It happens even on a clean install of Jaunty, as well as on a fully updated install, with more than 100GB of HD free.
I can reliably trigger this bug by 'rm -rf'ing the LLVM+GCC+CLANG after I build them.

You asked about other allocations ocorruring when the bug is triggered. I think the only other thing I was running during these lockups was Firefox plus a few extensions (NoScript, AdBlock Plus, DownloadThemAll ), but I can trigger these lockups even when I log in through Ubuntu's recovery menu on boot up ( which, I guess, has the absolute minimum of processes running in the background ).

I also should mention that kernel 2.6.29 ( from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.29.1/ ) seems to have fixed this bug for me.
