I had just finished building a new kernel for www2 which, amoung other
things, fixes some problems with the virtual memory system that cause the
machine to hang under memory pressure, when it crashed before I could get the
new kernel in place.
So I rebooted it, moved the new kernel in place, and booted it again.
This isn't the only bug in Linux, but it is one that is commonly
problematic on that machine.
