[bf1942] Serious cpu use drop with beta 7

[Casey Zacek]

Yeah, I actually had OB7 crash on me last night around 18:30 central.
The server was full at the time.  I didn't post anything, though,
because I got dumb and deleted the core dump, so I have no backtrace.

It had been running for about 32 hours.

This time, it was a Segmetation Fault, though, not the Illegal
Instruction I got with OB4.
