I have just built a FreeBSD 5.3 box with SMP enabled on a dual processor

and I believe I now have the cuprit: mysql-server-4.1.7 is doing it.
Lately, when mysql-server is running under no load, it caused lockups of
the system, with no core dumps.
Troubleshooting:
I have been frantically trying to re-install a lot of things -- I did a
cvsup on the stable tree, recompiled the source, and tried a generic
kernel with no SMP. I reinstalled a lot of ports that could have been
doing this. Meanwhile, a lot of things were dumping core. I tried
cooling the CPU and memory just in case it was hardware-related.
Finally, I now have a stable computer, running in SMP, but only if
mysql-server is disabled. Does anyone know what sort of things I can do
to get mysql to run? I am in the middle of another recompile of the
same mysql-server with the same options (I believe they are openssl,
linuxthreads, and optimize) as before. Has anyone seen this problem
before? I will report back tomorrow if a "simple" reinstall of the port
has fixed this issue, but I have reinstalled it thrice now.
Either my problem was with a screensaver, or re-compiling carefully one more
time has fixed this problem, I think. No more crashes that I have seen.
