Well, basic suggestion is the same: try to reproduce the problem 
without any 3rd party modules/patches compiled in.

If you use geoip module, please also make sure it's database isn't 
corrupted (or just try without it), as MaxMind's geoip library is 
known to do bad things if database is corrupted.
