OK. I had a similar crash yesterday on a different machine but I think
with rather identical hardware, it was a batch job that was running
so I don't know exactly what caused the crash (after about 48 CPU hours,
arrgh), but I have a (small) core dump at
<URL:http://www.astro.uio.no/~kjetikj/tmp/core3>

Anyway, Uwe suggested it might be a RAM hardware problem, which is not
impossible. I think these machines were bought while still in beta-test,
and hopefully, Compaq will drop by tomorrow to have a look. 

Best,

Kjetil
