--- Comment #12 from Andrew Rutherford <andrewr-freebsd@iagu.net> ---
I have the same problem - and have had it through multiple releases, with it
crashing reasonably reliably under amd64 10.0-RELEASE-p7 and
apache-openoffice-4.1.1_1.

Note "reasonably reliably" not "reliably". I thought it crashed every time, but
when I tried running it under GDB as advised, I was gobsmacked to see it didn't
crash. Well, the first time anyway. It seems when run under GDB it only has
about a 50% chance of crashing instead of 99%+ chance of crashing.

That didn't make sense to me, so I investigated further.

If my system has next to no load (most of the time - my laptop has 32G RAM,
"top" currently reports 12G free and CPU 98% idle), it crashes every time.
Start recompiling ports with parallelization to the max, and no crashes.

This is screaming "race condition" to me. Any suggestions on what I should be
doing to further investigate?

Thanks!
