To be more accurate, it had 960612-SNAP userland and a
-current-to-the-minute kernel, with everything static.  Either the
problem is sufficiently masked by only having 8M, or my problem was
indeed the RAM, because with 8M it got ~2hrs into a -world before I
had to leave, where with the previous memory config (16M) it wouldn't
last more than 20-30 minutes.  Current plans have me ordering a bag of
sticks tomorrow sometime and apologising to the list for wasting
bandwidth.
