Yeah, that's bad, and it looks like the problem is located somewhere in the kernel. I've never worked with innd, but I can give you some hints to nail down the problem.

The first idea is to test even older kernels, hppa-sources back to 2.6.10 are still in portage. If you find out between which kernel versions the problem was introduced, it can probably be much better hunt down, and you find a usable configuration.

The other point is to find out where the kernel fails. Issue
Code:
dmesg -n 7

before starting innd and you will get a very detailed crash log of the kernel.
(it might be a wise solution to sent these error messages to a console which you can log with another machine (net or serial console for example) because you cannot write it to harddisk as the machine does not sync after the crash.)

If you've done that (and posted it here) then you may have luck and someone looking by here knows a solution, or you can file a bug.
