Waking up this morning, I found the 6500 sitting in ddb.. I only got a
partial backtrace, but here it is:

db> bt
0x00433ee0: at zs_abort+70
0x00433ef0: at zstty_stint+d4
0x00433f10: at zsc_intr_hard+124
0x00433f30: at zshard+5c       =20
0x00433f60: at ext_intr+1d4
0x00433fa0: at trapstart+860
0xffffcba0: at ADBDevTable+4bb8623c

it seems to have happened quite soon after I disconnected the console
and went to bed, with it compiling xfce4. Doh.

XFree86 4.3 still warns about the memory and produces artifacts and
freezes in twm when moving a window (xterm, xclock respectively).=20
blackbox doesn't even start
