We've been having problems with random crashes (with latest CVS) on 3 
installations, but it appears to be a gcc or glibc bug. So far it hasn't 
happened with the default CFLAGS, while it does occur (at random, so 
unreproducable in production) with
-pipe -march=i386 -mcpu=i686 -O2 -momit-leaf-frame-pointer 
-mpreferred-stack-boundary=3

It's been known to happen on both SMP and single cpu systems, so it's 
not likely a kernel bug.
