I don't know, but it looks like the p4 process exited with
a SIGABRT, and
that's not good. Try running the command manually (not
through a script) and
see if it still fails. If so, you should log a call with
Perforce technical
support on this one, it may take some digging to resolve.

Yes. 134 = 0x86. On my Linux box, the macro
WIFSIGNALED(status) is defined
thus ((status) & 0x7f).
0x86 & 0x7f = 0x06
'kill -l' says signal number 6 is SIGABRT. So, it just
means that the command
aborted (which we already knew because the shell told us
so).
