Interesting. It seems to have died in the middle of loading a
module... any insight into what that module may have been?
Any way to hack beastie_disable="YES" into loader.conf(5) and see if
that changes things?
The only real change in lualoader in the past day was the update to
5.3.5 and removal of some float stuff- the former was pretty tiny, and
the latter was unused cruft anyways.
Thanks,
