That's because the oops decoder in klogd isn't that great and has
problems with modules. If you'd run the oops through ksymoops it should
show that the bug is coming from Coda.

To fix this, you simply need to apply the RedHat 7.2 security patches,
amongst which is a more recent kernel (2.4.9 I believe) that has a fix
that makes Coda work nicely on top of pretty much any filesystem
including ext3.
