make sure you start zope with the STUPID_LOG_FILE environment variable
set. Then, when your zope dies, look at the tail end of the log file. 
It should have a line that has an "Aiieee ! 12312 exited with error
code: xx".

The error code is what you should be looking at- it will tell you what
your OS reports the problem as being.  error 11 on linux is segfault,
which *may* be hardware related.

hope this helps,
