Most interesting.  Very interesting.

I compiled XFree86 3.2 a week or two ago.  When I start the X server, I 
invariably see panic: soqremque 2, which is in uipc_socket2.c.  Could these 
be related?  Looks suspicious to me.

However, I'm unable to do any further investigating.  Despite the fact that
my P90 has 32 physical megabytes and 100 on swap, I get

/var/crash prozac% gdb -k /usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/PROZAC/netbsd.gdb netbsd.0.core 
[...]
GDB 4.11 (i386-netbsd), Copyright 1993 Free Software Foundation, Inc...
gdb: virtual memory exhausted: can't allocate 2636032 bytes.

with:

-rw-r--r--   1 root  wheel  12976128 Nov 20 22:28 netbsd.0.core
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel   9275079 Nov 20 22:19 netbsd.gdb*

Does the first bit help track this down?

Can anyone explain why gdb is copping out, or what I ought to do to look into
this?

Gary
