Someone of those folks who actually experience this problems should
investigate it.  Sorry, i'm in the same position as Jordan, i can run
it for any time i want, and it doesn't crash.  Thus, it's hard for me
to fix a bug i could not see.

If some of you found something, please use send-pr to report it.  (But
please don't use it with just the information presented in this thread
-- i couldn't do anything more for it.)
