Are you using WinCVS?  If so, ours was crashing too because the username
that we were using wasn't listed in the CVSROOT/passwd file (and we are
allowing the system to fall-back to system authentication).

BTW: If nobody else is using cvs, then you can remove the lock files.

Well, I couldn't wait for an answer, so I deleted the files.  I still got
the fatal signal and segmentation faults, so I figured there was something
going on in the filesystem.  So, I rebooted the server and was going to run
fsck, but all is well after the reboot.  Very strange.
