Oh, my bad. Sorry, I completely misunderstood.
Have you tried intercepting SIGKILL via a call (or calls) to
signal(...)? It would be interesting to abort() there to get a stack dump.
(or possibly fork() and abort() the child to keep the main running?) I
personally wouldn't try to allow the mud to continue running after it
receives a SIGKILL, especially if the mud is running on someone else's
machine and they don't want it doing what it is! (CPU usage, disk space,
etc...) :-)
