I've also had problems with programs dying like this. From syslog:
09:31 WARNING: Process [Mozilla30] pid 1085 killed: not enough memory to grow stack
opus 34# swap -l
lswap path dev pri swaplo blocks free maxswap vswap
2 /swap/swap1

1 /dev/swap

opus 35# w
Also, a few minutes ago the machine crashed with what appears to be a
jump through a NULL pointer in the kernel. I suspect that both this
and kretch's panic were AFS related.
