Gilbert,

I'm confused.  The process that received the SIGBUS couldn't
have been started by a pqact(1) configuration-file entry
because its abnormal termination was reported by the top-level
LDM server rather than by a pqact(1) process.

The important point is that processes started by EXEC entries
in the LDM configuration-file must be written so that they don't
terminate abnormally.

You too.
