As you have foreseen, attacking the problem probebly, solved most of
the crashes I have seen. The only one which is left know seems to be a
kind of a race condition. I have the normal pfinet translater attachet
to /servers/socket/2. Then I start my own program which tries to answer
any incomming ping packet (I'm still working on the program for testing
the low level net functions). Now I started pinging the hurd box. And
after some time the kernel crashes.
Here the ping output from the linux box:
newton:~$ ping gauss

[gauss has crashed]
And here is the bt from gdb:

I know this kind of thing doing to the kernel is nasty, but
still the kernel shouldn't not crash, I think.
Now I'm trying to find out more about this problem and of course how
this can be fixed.
