Sorry for my last post. Spoke too soon. I found the problem!.

It lies inside devel/boost-libs.

After you issue make patch, apply this to
work/boost_1_48_0/boost/asio/detail/io_control.hpp. 
I couldn't manage to produce a proper diff file.

*** 46,52 ****
    // Get the name of the IO control command.
    ioctl_cmd_type name() const
    {
-     return static_cast<int>(FIONBIO);
+     return static_cast<ioctl_cmd_type>(FIONBIO);


*** 96,102 ****
    // Get the name of the IO control command.
    ioctl_cmd_type name() const
    {
-     return static_cast<int>(FIONREAD);
+     return static_cast<ioctl_cmd_type>(FIONREAD);
    }

-Rebuild/reinstall devel/boost-libs
-Rebuild/reinstall net-p2p/libtorrent-rasterbar-16
-Rebuild/reinstall net-p2p/libtorrent-rasterbar-16-python
-Rebuild/reinstall net-p2p/qbittorrent

No more lockups and kernel messages!! :) after I did this, qbittorrent
has been up flawlessly for almost 2 hours.

I don't know how to get in touch with the boost-lib port mantainer so
he/she can fix the port file patch-boost_asio-ioctl to add these
changes.
