I agree with the archive and install method, or do a clean wipe and install just leopard and rebuild from there. I know its a pain in the ass, but every time I upgrade to new version of the OS I start preparing and backing up - usually takes me 1/2 a day to get all my apps, files, and settings back on.
I find also that I decide to not reinstall a bunch of stuff that is obsolete to me - thus saving space and not cluttering up my drive.Don't know if this method (logistically) works for you, but I've been doing it since 10.3 came out and I've only had 2 kernel panics on my machines (both related to an airport bug). I've had none on my MacBook (2 ghz / 2 gb ram) - had it more than a year and upgraded to leopard back in Nov. Sorry to hear you're having troubles...
