:I have read one state that he upgraded to -current and that fixed the

    I don't know of any bug fix in -current for this problem, but it
    is quite possible that it isn't creating an issue in -current for
    some other reason.

    A make buildworld doesn't stress anything on a machine with a
    reasonable (64MB+) amount of memory.  If that can crash your box
    then the probability is that the bug is in the ATA driver itself
    and not in the VM system.  But where I don't know.
