It's occuring on both my current machines, one a 486 dx2-66 with 16Mb, the
other a 25MHz 386sx with 8Mb. Each of these has a fairly large amount of swap
used (about 37%, or 18Mb of 50Mb). Most programs that die (and this is rather
intermittent behaiviour) will go with a sig 10, or very rarely, a sig 8. I've
had ftpd and login dip out on me, as well as xterm, xclock, twm and others.
These machines are the result of a make world then config foo. The only thing
I can think of that caused them to break is the VM stuff, as there's been
nothing else major. Not having expended the necessary BS&T (blood sweat &
tears) needed to under stand the VM stuff, I can't offer a useful suggestion
as to what the problem might be wthin the code.

I do not speak for the Worker's Compensation Board of Queensland -
They don't pay me enough for that!
