Subject: System crash by extremely much generated output v6 beta

Hi developers,

My environment:
MacPro OSX10.7 installed on a partition of 20 GByte;
FreeSurfer v6 beta

During processing recon-all on 4 subjects in parallel
using 4 terminal windows, the 20 GByte partition got
full. This happened twice and I managed to trace down
the offending stage in the pipeline: topology fixing,
in particular the tool mris_topo_fixer.
Most probably it went into an endless iteration loop
generating so much output the disk got full.

Cheers,
Ed
