I just compiled and tested net/vnc on the mini (works great with no
tweaks by the way) and then did a make clean in the port.  (I'm doing
this remotely.)  At that point the box seemed to become
non-responsive.  I thought it had crashed but had hit a few keys and
noticed later that they came up very belatedly.  The box is still
running but not responding to pings.

A bit later it seems to have come out of its lethargy, but when I
check top I see this:

And now (as I was typing this) it has aparently crashed completely
(ssh session terminated and no ping response).  What is with the cron
jobs?  A ps listing showed them as "cron -s" -- any ideas what is
going on here?  I'm guessing this is what was happening in those cases
where the box seemed to freeze but didn't drop to the debugger...
