Continuing the thread, since the problem persists, emacs in or running 
or not.

I've created my own stackdumper script and aliased it to the word 
"shampoo." It writes to a log file. You'll find the script -- and most 
recent log entries attached -- on the offchance anyone wants to do the 
same to document this issue with numbers (dates, times and file-lengths) 
etc.

Stackdumps are normally created by some sort of code collision, right? 
What could be causing collisions when a terminal sits idle for four 
hours and runs one and only one script, albeit not in its CWD, in all 
that time?

'S a puzzler.
