Argh.. You must never continue when you  encounter  such  a  problem.
Always stop and take time to analyze and fix the problem. Even if you
don't  have  time. Otherwise it will bite you later, usually when you
have absolutely no time left to deal with it.

That does not mean much. Many systems run fine under pSOS or  so  and
crash under UNIX systems. See the FAQ.

Good hunting.
