if this bug is related to the cache_lock: blocked, it happens anytime
between 1-4 weeks. if this is something else, i dont know. ive seen it
happen occasionally on 1.8 but i never took a core dump. However, on 1.10
it has happened already the first day i put it on, even though NFS
actually wasnt mounted because i took the server home(this is an NFS
client, the NFS server is at work). The coredump youve seen is from 1.8, i
have made another one from 1.10.1 today. Dou you want to see it also?

I'll try the patch probably tomorrow when im on site.
