I doubt this is exactly the case. I have the same problem with my C110 in that
connecting to the box over ssh will kill it (with a gcc 3.2 compiled kernel) but
DECnet works fine with that kernel.

Oddly, DECnet does /not/ work with a gcc 3.0.4 compiled kernel (it doesn't crash,
just produces bogus packets), though ssh does - as we know.
