I've managed to cut down ( but not eliminate! ) this problem by adding "-trailers" to disable trailers on the sn0 interface. I haven't had my PB lock up since I did that. I just noticed that if I did enable trailers, the machine would hang after about 2-3 minutes of ethernet traffic. Hope this helps a little.
