   These d-messages are all generated by the nightly Free Pascal testsuite that I am running on these two machines.

Some off these tests are really lengthy, and this is the reason why they are launched with an explicit
CPU limit limitation using 'ulimit -t 60' to limit
each individual test for consume 60 seconds CPU time at most.

   Is it a problem that these interrupted tests generate a dmesg entry?

   I didn't find any 'panic' containing lines on gcc427 inside /var/log/messages file.

   I was not able to connect to gcc430 this morning,
and couldn't check the recent content of that machine.

   Do you suspect a link between the CPU exceeded time messages and the crashes you are reporting?
Should I disable the testsuite on gcc430?

   I sincerely hope that the troubles are not due
to the scripts that I run on these test machines.

Thank you again for providing these configurations to the community!
