OK, I narrowed it down. First of all I'm still unable to use i2o_block, but that's also the case for vanilla kernels, so I gave it up for now.

More importantly I was finally able to diagnose my crashes. I watched the host closely while it was under heavy network load (samba mostly and some rsync). When the errors appeared (network connection very slow, until the host is unreachable). I checked /proc/user_beancounters and found this:

So the host's tcpsndbuf is running full. I should mention that I moved eth1 to the vps with NETDEV="eth1". This is the major configuration difference to my test system that runs fine with a venet0 interface.
The error also occured without the vps loaded and traffic occuring just on the not virtualized eth0 interface. I've seen the error with 2.6.15-025stab014 and 2.6.16-026stab007. Do you need any more information?
