I've had a couple more lockups. Previously, I was logging in at the "console" (keyboard and monitor, not RS232) and using sh by itself. So when it locked up, I couldn't even tell if anything was working. The last few times, I've been running X11 with twm. So when it locks, I can say that X11 and twm still work, but all XTerms lock up. One of these days I'll build a headphone -> RS232 cable so at least I can do some poking round and maybe see what's happening.
I don't think it's a memory/swap issue. The last two times I saw it happen, make was in the middle of an ftp download. I can't imagine that it could run out of memory at that point.
