2940UW problems

 A while back the ISP I work for (WorldSpice) had server problems,
specifically, server crashes.  It happened on a FreeBSD-2.2.5-CURRENT
machine with an Adaptec-2940 UW controller driving a Quantum 4 gigabyte
(XP34550W) drive.  Recently, another server, with the same SCSI
configuration, but running Linux 2.0/glibc also started crashing.  The
only common denominators in the machines hardware-wise are the ethernet
cards (DEC 21041 Tulip) and the SCSI cards/drives.  All of the processes
that trigger the crashes on both servers are processes that are linked
with the GD graphics library.  If anyone can help me with this, I would
appreciate it.  Logs from the second (Linux) machine are attached.
Niceing the processes stops the crashes (usually.)
