[OpenIndiana-discuss] Gimp 3: hang in place my station

I am the primary maintainer of GraphicsMagick, which cleanly forked from
ImageMagick in 2002. Since then, I have had no responsibility for
ImageMagick.

Regardless, the most likely cause of the system crash is using enough
memory to encounter bad RAM in the system, or perhaps writing data to a
filesystem where there is an I/O subsystem issue, or there may be a
graphics hardware/driver issue.
