It looks to me like Dreamhost did an upgrade that broke my PHP installation. Gallery was returning HTTP 500 errors from 9 am to 11 pm PDT. Fixed.

Two weekends ago I upgraded kiwi to the latest Ubuntu release. I think the only visible effect is a major update to the WordPress administrative interface. For those of you using webmail (oh wait, that’s no one outside of this house) the upgrade paves the way major updates there as well. Blogs were down for a couple hours, everything else for a few minutes.
