Hi, Joachim,
The SIG codes are all listed via the "kill -l" command. SIGHUP is
code 1. When a program exits normally, it returns a value of zero. The
SIGHUP is a program error where the program pointer is lost (generally),
and in this case it appears that something was reading XML code (text
meta language) which addressed a missing file or a missing label in the
file.
If you do "info SIGHUP" you can get a bit more information.
