Hi. These last days, after some months of running relatively smoothly,
I've been having some trouble with MySQL. Sometimes (yesterday 4 times) it
just goes astray and virtually hangs. Load goes up to +200%, all
connections are occupied and it just doesn't do anything. The only way to
stop it is to killall -9 mysql because a mysqladmin shutdown won't do.

  Looking though the error file I get this:

mysqld got signal 11;
This could be because you hit a bug. It is also possible that this binary
or one of the libraries it was linked agaist is corrupt, improperly built,
[...]

key_buffer_size=402649088
record_buffer=8384512
sort_buffer=33554424
max_used_connections=352
max_connections=400
threads_connected=287
It is possible that mysqld could use up to
key_buffer_size + (record_buffer + sort_buffer)*max_connections = 4192696 K
bytes of memory
Hope that's ok, if not, decrease some variables in the equation

  (Is it ok? Box is a Dual 1Ghz, 1Gb ram, Linux 2.4.16 dedicated only to
MySQL)

Attempting backtrace. You can use the following information to find out
where mysqld died. If you see no messages after this, something went
terribly wrong...
Stack range sanity check OK, backtrace follows:
0x806ede4
0x8120148
0x814ba77
0x80a147f
0x807561a
0x8073f97

[...]

Trying to get some variables.
Some pointers may be invalid and cause the dump to abort...
thd->query at (nil)  is invalid pointer
thd->thread_id=1733

  Everytime the box hangs I get the same stack backtrace, I have resolved
it and it's:

0x806ede4 pack__12Field_stringPcPCcUi + 20
0x8120148 regatoi + 8
0x814ba6f __printf_fp + 5719
0x80a147f join_read_const__FP13st_join_table + 35
0x807561a push_front__t4List1Z3KeyP3Key + 18
0x8073f97 prepare__13select_exportRt4List1Z4Item + 443

  ...but when I try to find the thread that caused it (1733 in this case)
in the binary log it doesn't appear so I'm unable to determine what's
causing the error.

  I thought at first that it could be a load peak issue, but this error is
from today at 6am, and this isn't a busy hour. Everytime I get this i run
myisamchk -r *.MYI. It seems that after some time (+30 minutes usually)
mysql restarts and starts running again.

  Any thoughts on this? Anything I can do to resolve it?

  Thanks.
