     Type:  defect    |      Status:  new                
 Priority:  normal    |   Milestone:  Varnish 2.0 release
Component:  varnishd  |     Version:  2.0                
 Severity:  normal    |    Keywords:                     
----------------------+-----------------------------------------------------
 This piece of code seems to be cause frequent crashes in both Varnish 2.0
 beta 2 and -trunk from May 6th.
 Removing it fixes the problem.

 sub vcl_fetch {
         # Restart failed requests (i.e: 5xx)
        if (obj.status != 200 && obj.status != 301 && obj.status != 302 &&
 obj.status != 403 && obj.status != 404) {
                restart;
        }
 }

 Unfortunately I don't have time to provide a backtrace at this moment.
 I'm running on Linux 64-bit (Ubuntu Hardy) with a single Apache backend.
