What was it before?  What is it now?

Recent versions of the GNU Mach package have included a patch to tune
the VM.  I've gone from compiling for a few hours between crashes to
compiling all day and often times properly shutting down in the
evening.

Do you happen to know what version of the gnu mach package you had
installed before the update?
