Please be more verbose. What happens exactly? Does the system just become 
unresponsive, does it run out of memory, etc.? Can you call top while you 
restart and do you see what's happening in the output?

Also, what architecture are you using? What are the versions of libapr1 
and libaprutil1 that you have installed? (These information get 
automatically added by reportbug. I recommend you use reportbug in 
the future.)

Cheers,
Stefan
