More than likely they are not handling SIGCHLD correctly. Look for a line like signal(SIGCHLD,SIG_IGN); If there is a line like that and it isn't wrapped in some ifdef's change it to #ifdef BSD signal(SIGCHLD, sig_child); #else signal(SIGCHLD,SIG_IGN); #endif then at the end of the file add void sig_child(int sig) { #ifdef BSD int pid; int status; /* catch any and all outstanding SIGCHLD's */ while((pid = waitpid(-1, &status, WNOHANG)) > 0) ; #endif } and at the top where you see other function declarations add void sig_child(int); Add a -DBSD to your CFLAGS in the Makefile and send diff's to Corollary.
