First off, please wrap lines at 70 characters. The compiler giving "sig 11" problems and rebooting is a sure indication of a memory, connectivity (loose connectors) or a heating issue. Swap out the memory, check your cooling systems and make sure all your cards and cables are seated correctly. -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
