Unfortunately for me and my Biostar board, I don't think I'll be getting this update for another month or two, if ever. But, though my CPU is affected by this problem, it overall seems to have no impact on my regular workload. It takes tens of minutes for the segfaults to occur, and there is nothing I compile that takes that long. I currently am unaware of anything else that triggers this problem.
Was it ASRock telling you to crank the Vcore to 1.42 or AMD? Because I really have a hard time believing AMD would tell you to do such a thing, considering (from my recollection) they recommend people stay below 1.35v. On the other hand, if AMD obliges RMAs to OC'd CPUs, they probably realize "well, this CPU is defective and we're never going to be able to re-sell it, so we might as well tell customers to push the limits".
