I can gather more data when I get back Monday. There was a stack trace
but I didn't save a copy. Hopefully I can reproduce it within gdb;
postmortem debugging isn't of much use here (though I suppose I could
insert an infinite loop into the constructor of that particular
exception, so I can attach after the problem occurs).
My plan was to run the same test on a multiprocessor, but there's
little point until the immediate problems are solved.
