I don't suspect it has - I was wrong ;) I think I was too-focussed on
the quad core issue that I didn't even read the config correctly. I
thought the crashes happened on the server. I now need to reevaluate the
material - or maybe it is simpler if I just follow what happens now.

I'd actually start with removing the $ActionQueue* directives, as they
cause additional asynchronizity. But the important thing is it first get
back to a state where we can (somewhat) reliably reproduce the bug. I
think we should see at least 3 aborts in a row before we do any changes.
The reason is that we otherwise do not know if the config changed caused
the situation to improve or that was just a random non-abort. That's the
issue I have run into all time so far...
