The problem turned out to be apache22. I was getting:

[Wed Dec 16 16:27:44 2009] [emerg] (2)No such file or directory: mod_fcgid: 
Can't create shared memory for size 12993924 bytes

Can't create shared memory for size 12993924 bytes

The system rebooted itself about six hours ago; svc.configd had grown to about 
half a gigabyte when I notice it a few minutes ago. Disabling apache22 and 
killing svc.configd restored the normal state of things. 

Now let's see what's the problem with Apache...

s/probably/definitely/

looking at the frequency of Apache restarts, it's just about what the 6765749 
analysis says.
