Re: I think this qualifies as a newbie question

No, AFAIU it was process shutdown as in /sbin/shutdown, not as in
kill(SEGV). I understand that oops format is:

Process $process_name (pid: $pid, process nr: $number, stackpage=$stack)

and $process_name is the name, not the stage which the process in on. Look
into traps.c and see.

So, I wondered what /sbin/shutdown (or some other one named shutdown) was
doing there, in MUD, running.
