seen my reply :(.
it's been quite hectic on the list lately...
as always if you have a reproducible problem of a crash after a short
time, you are welcome to submit a bugzilla. But be prepared to hand over
lots of information.
Unfortunately there are many factors besides GROMACS that can make
programs crash, e.g. overheating, broken memory chips, broken FFT
libraries, shitty compilers.
It's always a good test to compile with gcc in case you tried something
else first.
It seems to be almost at random which of the processes falls...

I am running a system of 185K atoms. The structure is energy minimized
and the
dynamics run appears to be going smoothly until it just hangs. The job
still
exists on the first node, but none of the 4 nodes are doing any work
and I don't
get any error messages.
The trajectory looks good and no step.***.pdb files were created.
My only clue is that an energy file was created but was empty -- and
should have
some data based on nstenergy=10000
The last portion of output to my mdrun_mpi -g log file was:
