B. Tuttle,

This means that mapserv crashed.  I would suggest:

  o Try the same configuration (mapfile and request) with a prepackaged
    mapserver binary like FWTools, or FGS to determine if the issue is
    your build.

  o If that also fails, or if you can't try that, then rebuild your server
    in debug mode, and try to get a traceback from "gdb".

  o File a bug with details (most applicable if you can reproduce the
    problem with something like FGS or FWTools.

Best regards,
