That's interesting... any idea if it's crashing in the same place as mine? I haven't looked into the code in any great detail, but it seems to be all going wrong in some cleanup/shutdown code -- I guess this explains why the clients don't notice anything, nor is there any impact on the contents of the repository, as far as we can see, anyway. I'll probably run a few buildworlds and swap out the RAM on this machine anyway, just to eliminate that as a potential cause.
