Yea, at first I thought it was an out-of-memory condition, and so I did typical things like lower maximum connections. This helped, but the machine is no longer running out of memory. Or if it is, it's running out of memory without displaying any symptoms of it (nothing is OOM killed by the kernel, other processes don't fail, free reports allocatable memory, etc). I just wanted to see what the "OS-dependent bug" thing is about - it sounds like it is referring to a particular bug that is described in the manual. I haven't tried MySQL AB binaries - I am using the stock Debian builds. Since it refers to general errors, I may persue it with them as well.
