It is sometimes works, sometimes die with 'segmentation fault', sometimes die with 'illegal instruction', and sometimes fail with 'rm: No such file or directory' (without a file name). Every other program, including the compiler, seems works correct, (I built a couple of ports), so I don't think it is a hardware problem like 'bad memory' :-|. Any idea? Dima P.S.
