When is "over the weekend".  That's a 48-72 hour period depending on
whether you mean Sat/Sun or Friday night to Monday night since in the U.S.
a lot of people had 3-day weeknds.

I've been running the CVS that included all my commflag changes up until
last night without problems.  I have seen rare backend crashes but they
have been occuring for me occasionally since I upgraded my main system
around 0.15 so I think they are unrelated to my commflag changes.

I did do a fairly big commit last night, so if you can get a gdb
backtrace that is related to that, then let me know.

I think others have mentioned something like this before prior to the
commflag changes, but if you can get gdb to show where it's happening
that would help.
