I don't think that your problem is related to the card corruption bug! Your device reboots (probably) because of a watchdog reset (e.g. too high cpu usage)... In this case the data couldn't be synced to the card and your filesystem corrupts. Did you try to transfer large files (700mb) via USB or WLAN (or generated data with diskdump)?
My device never rebooted (or was unresponsive), when my cards got corrupted (3 8GB SDHC Class 6 Transcend cards, external slot)!

@Toontje:
There are several reports of card corruption in internal slot... but the external slot seems to be more affected.
