My system just shut down in the middle of a compile. I got this in the logs:

[kernel] ACPI: Critical trip point

I read about it via Google, but it's usually followed by a message
about the CPU temperature being too high. Mine isn't followed by
anything except notices about processes shutting down. Is this
definitely a temperature issue?

I think this was temperature.
