Interesting, I'm running the fixes branch and have had many weeks of uptime. 
It's currently 3 weeks or so and the only reason I took it down was to 
install a DVB-S card.

Since I disabled XvMC (I had frontend lockups and haven't bothered to 
investigate yet) I've had no lockups or crashes at all.

I don't have anything to compared it to as I started on .20 but I'm been very 
happy with it.
