My definition:

-- When a bug breaks all core. For example sessions, bootstrap one of the  
form elements or something like that.

-- A whole (or most of a) module is unusable. Example: you can't post a  
forum topic.

-- Major part of a module is broken. Example: you can't add a menu with  
menu module.
