<When was the last time, if ever, that money funds were seriously threatened?>

After the 1930 stock market crash. The public lined up outside the banks to withdraw the 10% of their funds they we're allowed to withdraw and the rest was lost.

I think its a good idea, as George C. has suggested, if you have uninsured money funds to look for a government bond or gold to store it at least temporarily until the dust settles out from a possible credit collapse.
