This looks like an out of memory condition. It shouldn't fail such horribly in the filesystem etc, but you never know what weird things happen when you run out of memory. 16 MB RAM is pretty tight, even with a lot of swap. Our virtual memory management could probably deal a bit better in such cases... Thanks, Marcus -- `Rhubarb is no Egyptian god.'
