Hmmmm,
Well, I've seen this will infinite loops, where an unexpected data  
record
causes the parser to spin on the same DSR (a subset of the argus  
record).

On that 1 particular day, just run rabins() using gdb() against it  
with the
same parameters, and then, after a long while, break it with 'ctrl- 
c'.  It will
break in the loop, and you can step ('n') through a few times it to see
  that its in a loop.  Whatever every routine its in and the line  
numbers, is
usually enough to know what is up.

More than likely you're getting a DSR len of zero, somewhere, and its
just spinning on the same DSR?

If this is a mystery, send email, and I'll give you blow by blow  
instructions.
