Ok. In that case I suggest people try Dan's suggestion, i.e. map everything to libkse. If the problems persist, try mapping everything to libc_r. If that solves things then at least we've got an idea that the problems are either in libkse or the way its being used by the VM. Reports on what happens when you try these options are obviously helpful. -- Greg Lewis Email : glewis@eyesbeyond.com Eyes Beyond Web : http://www.eyesbeyond.com Information Technology FreeBSD : glewis@FreeBSD.org
