This problem in the VM Subsystem persists since around mid of January
1998 and ther was already a thread on this lists about "dying daemons".

Here an example what happens: (a little old now, but unchanged behavior
                               on a current -current)

Jun  3 13:41:28 magnet /kernel: npx0: INT 16 interface

Jun  3 16:10:20 magnet /kernel: swap_pager: suggest more swap space: 61 MB
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This comes from starting netscape 4.05

and now:

Jun  3 16:12:17 magnet su: holm to root on /dev/ttyp3
Jun  3 16:15:10 magnet su: holm to freebsd on /dev/ttyp2
Jun  3 16:31:43 magnet /kernel: pid 3385 (sendmail), uid 0: exited on signal 11

This is what I mean !

Because I know that problem for long, the next action is killing sendmail
and restarting it per hand:

Jun  3 16:36:20 magnet su: holm to root on /dev/ttyp2
Jun  3 16:38:11 magnet sendmail[4980]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(root): opendaemonsocket: cannot bind: Address already
 in use
Jun  3 16:38:11 magnet sendmail[4980]: problem creating SMTP socket
Jun  3 16:38:16 magnet sendmail[4980]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(root): opendaemonsocket: cannot bind: Address already
...

but this is normal.

Like this problem I have problems with inetd too, telnetd is claiming about
junk pointer to low etc.
All this after starting navigator4.05.

This machine waits for an upgrade next time.
It is a 486DX2/80 with 32Mbyte RAM, and tracks -current since 2.0.0.

The problem occours on weekends and holydays, when I'm
away from that host for several days and forgot to restart sendmail.
