Nope. I got it as follows:

        1. civserver doesn't get ping response from client
        2. civserver cuts connection
        3. civclient's CMA comes in trouble
        4. civclient crashes

I'm not sure with this conclusion, because the GUI hasn't had so much
work in this situation. I.e. city report was *not* open. Something's 
behind the scene that is slow. Too many CMA calls?
