Hi,

I didn't upgrade to current for a week to see if I can reproduce the bug.
Nate suggested to not swap on both wd and sd, so I removed swapping on scsi
disks. After a week (3 hours/day) I didn't see anything and I decided to
update my binaries (I couldn't resist). And the thing was there:

installing float.h floatingpoint.h stdarg.h varargs.h
===> rpcsvc
cd /usr/src/include/rpcsvc ; rpcgen -h yp.x -o /usr/src/include/rpcsvc/obj/yp.h
Installing RPC service header and definition files
yp.x

stopped for more than an hour, system is still alive and top reports:

load averages:   1.26,  1.10,  1.03                                    22:40:54

kill -9 1754 returns but the process is still here.
^C gave me the prompt back, but didn't kill the process anymore.
