:I got this panic 3 times today with 2.0, when building packages like 
:firefox3 on a hammer partition.

:Strange, as I have 3GB of memory. Is there a memory leak somewhere?
:I just build 1 or 2 packages (distfiles are already fetched), no other
:activity. And it's a UP machine.

    I thought I had fixed those.  Damn.

    Can you get a crash dump from the panic?  And upload it to your
    leaf account?

    This does sound like a memory leak but it could also be something
    else.  HAMMER keeps track of all those allocations so I should be
    able to figure out what is going on from a crash dump.
