Comment(by level42 at sympatico.ca):

 I'll throw something else in just in case to check.  Do you have anything
 that continually checks the backend status via html (like the "Backend
 Status" page in mythweb).  I had a script that would check the backend
 status, check for the backend PID, then query the backend status using the
 lynx text browser.  I found that this query was causing the backend to
 crash several times a day (the script checked the status every minute or
 so).  Once I removed the lynx query, my crashing stopped.  I haven't had
 time to track down the source of the problem to be able to raise a ticket.

 Thought I'd mentioned it, cause I was convinced my problem was EIT related
 also, when in fact it was the lynx status query.
