I confirm this issue and I attach text/plain with a similar stack trace.

I do not play with hibernate/suspend/standby options. I have a workstation Opteron 1222 running 24 hours. It usually happens when running Multimedia player (Kaffeine, VLC, and mplayer), often with H264.

Nonetheless I saw a similar Bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/240071

and last message says kernel 2.6.27 solves it!
It is related to a networking issue -not a fglrx-
(I can confirm I always had a networking client with heavy input/output when crash occurs).

I consider this issue critical because it locks the computer completely, and renders the kernel useless (all threads and processes hangs).
