It's a good guess, but it seems like this is being caused by the htdig
process.  It's compounded by the fact that a gdb snapshot is being
built, too.

I've sent mail to overseers@sources.redhat.com.  That's the list which
is read by people who can do something about this sort of thing.

I don't know why this is suddenly an issue now.  Maybe the people there
will have some insight.
