Well, I'd check your code for signal generators. Grep for the
'raise' function. Since it seems site specific, the only thing I can
think of is that your dns lookup code is killing you when you recieve
something that won't fit into the correct size character array...
like m0200028-10004tuc-west.johnjacobjingleheimerschmitt.dialup.com.
Though, I wouldn't have raised a signal, and especially not one like that,
i would have just used strncpy or something. Which patches, version, and
os are you running? Focus on things like copyover, dns, and patches which
run when the character enters the game.
