  PANIC: internal error

...from the looks of this, 1277 is where we attempt to kill a process, but first
verify that its PID is larger than 0. Apparently it is not.

I have the debugging at level 10, but there is no indication of anything before
or after that.

Would any more information be helpful?

This was compiled with HP-UX's native AnsiC, latest release that I know of... it
is an 11.11 system, and the Samba version is 3.0.2a as listed above. The
hardware is an N-class HP9000 six way.

My feeling is that this is probably related:

I remember fixing a bug related to this in the printing code a while 
ago.  Please reopen if the bug is still reproducible against 3.0.8.

sorry for the same, cleaning up the database to prevent unecessary reopens of bugs.
