bisect ... is not practical on something that takes 2 days to reproduce.

I already have build/update scripts for -next, and I trust -next not
to store screenshots of my desktop in my master boot record :-).

Anyway, it does happen with -next. This time, chromiums were running,
and crash happened minute? after I exited flightgear. It can be seen
in the logs.

Oh and I might want to mention -- machine was rather deep in swap this
time, as in "mouse jumping when starting fgfs" and "could feel the
chromium being swapped back in". I might have had this situation
before, and just powercycled the machine "because it is so deep in
swap that it will not recover".

....but of course that memory is free once everything died.

Any ideas? Should I go back to v4.19 to see if it happens there, too?
