Yeah, I observed this too a few times. All the times on a poor little pentium 1/150 with 48meg ram (according dmesg). It's somewhat difficult too check but I suspect I run out of memory every time.

You will see it logged by syslog and/or on the console if you run out
of memory (and swap) and a process is killed to make room (it will
also usually not die with signal 11, rather signal 9). If you do not
see this then out-of-memory is not the cause, and it is also almost
certain to be marginal or failing hardware.

I'll agree with Kris here. I have been banging my head against a
P4 1.6GHZ machine running 6.2 for a couple of weeks.

It would not do a "portsanp extract" without falling over with a sig 11
in the middle of the extract - leaving a few file clusters in
questionable state.

As it was a test machine, I swapped in a different HD controller, fresh
HD and it still failed. Then I installed 5.5 and it worked fine, but
very slowly compared to 6.2

So I went back to the 6.2 and it failed again. All on hardware I thought
was rock solid. Then I ran Memtest again and sure enough, the RAM had
gone bad. Popped in a fresh stick and now I'm running memtest for two
days without error now.

Sometimes the older hardware just isn't worth the grief...
