It stops about one in three `make worlds' in their tracks, and always during a large C compile - typically one in libg++ or groff someplace. It's cc1 that, furthermore, is always the one croaking! When run a second time, it always makes it through. Go figure! Also FYI: This did *not* happen until I went from a 90Mhz part to a 133Mhz part in my ASUS P55TP4-XE MB. Yes, my memory is 60ns. Using 256K pipeline burst module.
