Aha!! So I'm not going crazy....
We experienced the same phenomenon on two of our machines here within
the last two weeks. In both cases, the machines had been up 250 and
220 days each.
I have no idea when the bosserver vanished, since the child processes
(just the vlserver and ptserver in these cases) were running fine.
Here's hoping this is fixed in 3.4a.
