I see several values set to '18446744073709551615', which is an
insanely large number for any memory setting (16.7 million terabytes
unless my math is wrong; huge in any case).

There was another person on the list earlier this year who had a
similar problem with large numbers, IIRC.  I'd adjust those numbers
down for sure.

Tried an optimize or maybe a myisamchk |--check| or a |--analyze? Might
not be the underlying "cause" but might reduce the occurrences of pile ups?

Maybe there's a hardware issue when using the 64 bit code, any RAID
involved? ||I was vaguely assuming it was a RedHat-a-like box of some
description?|

Sounds like some other issue is just pushing MySQL over the edge, not
bumping into any ulimits are you?
