  There is a bug filed on bugs.freeradius.org.  Sending the server HUP
signals just isn't safe until it's fixed.  It may be possible to fix it
in 1.1.6...

  The issue isn't the activity during the crash, but the activity during
the HUP.  You have a module that's taking a LONG time to process a
request, and it's preventing the HUP handling from proceeding correctly.
