I wouldn't count on that. That would be rather un-Squeeze-like. I've
recently gotten the server into a state where the external scanner was
not running, but it was impossible to launch a new clear & rescan
because something internal must have indicated that a scan was still
running. Michael has done a lot of work recently to be sure that an
aborted scan is properly shut down and cleans up after itself, so this
should now be much more robust, but I'm not sure how well it recovers
from the external scanner crashing.
