line 666
line 666 [from Christian eschatological myth] /n./ The
notional line of source at which a program fails for obscure
reasons, implying either that *somebody* is out to get it
(when you are the programmer), or that it richly deserves to be so
gotten (when you are not). "It works when I trace through it, but
seems to crash on line 666 when I run it." "What happens is that
whenever a large batch comes through, mmdf dies on the Line of the
Beast. Probably some twit hardcoded a buffer size."
