>Description:
	I fetched -current tar balls from 10/06/97. When I try to do a
		$ cd /usr/src/lib; make
	the machine will get slower and slower and finally lockup after some
	time. It is still possible to ping the machine or start a telnet to
	it. But you will not get a login prompt when trying to telnet.
	The machine is a slow i486-100 with 24mb of ram. 
	Phil Buddne reported a similar problem with his pc532 on port-pc532
	a couple of days ago.
