I grabbed it Friday night. Again Saturday, and again Sunday. Didn't
notice anything in the commit logs all the way until Monday afternoon
when I checked last. So when I said "over the weekend", it really way
over the entire weekend, grabbing from CVS each day. Same behavior.
I did not grab anything last night, so I missed your changes that you
committed.

Yes, I know a gdb trace would be spectacular, but as I said for some
reason gdb was not cooperating. I'll get the exact error message
later, but I'm sure there was no call stack to print out. I think it
was getting confused with all the threads. In fact at one point I
couldn't even start the frontend because gdb had mucked up the threads.
Even with the June 15th CVS snapshot I grabbed, I had the backend
crash this morning. It used to be rock-solid until about late May, if
memory serves... Now I have to continually check mythweb from work,
and if the backend has crashed, ssh into the box and restart it.
I'll do my best to get a backtrace out of it tonight with a latest CVS.
