In my case it's normally happened in the midst of an updatedb (i.e. heavy disk access and lots of context switches to give frcode a chance to run &c), but it did not appear to *require* any of these. I've had it die a couple of times when sitting there doing nothing but serving the odd small NFS request. (I'm using unfsd, so it's not likely to be *that* at fault.)
