Strangeness in 2.0.32

Ran into some serious Strangeness in 2.0.32 when I got in today.

Unable to get a free page...

All over. On a box that is disconnected from the LAN, and is running
absolutely NOTHING. Two weeks of uptime. Soft-Reboot failed.
Shift-ScrlLock showed free pages, free swap. Nothing was running except
for the basics. The bare minimums. Machine configuration is as follows:

RedHat 4.2
Stock Kernel 2.0.32
BusLogic BT-946 SCSI
Microstar PCI2.1 (64M EDO, HX430 chipset)
3Com 3C905 Vortex (Finally, a GOOD one)
Stealth 3D 3000XL (S3V/DX)
Riscom n2/csu (DISABLED)
PS/2 Mouse, Standard Keyboard
2.14G SCSI HDD
8x ATAPI CD-ROM

Any ideas? I'd share logs, but, well, there aren't any! *boggle*

-prj, who HATES it when an isolated box fails an uptime test so miserably.
;P
