It's odd all right. However Swap partitions are meant to be on separate
partitions and even a separate disk if at all possible. This is something
most likely to do with Apple's VM management. I'll be glad when it's as
good as Linux'. For now though I'm just careful. This most likely occurred
while I had really heavily loaded memory and got VM low warnings
directing me to close out of applications, which I did. had to reboot to
reclaim VM but was thwared...

Just a thought, could it be because the swap files are not meant to be on a
separate partition or because you reached the limit and thereby forced a
system error somehow? (I would be very worried only to have 500 MB of swap
space in OSX, though. My iMac(512 MB) regularly opens 20 80 MB files).

Cheers,
