Yeah, I got approximately so far too, with gdb (despite my extremely limited gdb-fu). >Interestingly, adding more TRACE() calls makes the problem go >away. \o/ Classic Heisenbug behaviour. Right. Interestingly it’s always the shells you notice this in. Last time I saw this, it was a problem having to do with argument passing (registers vs. stack, how many, which, and where), including return value placement. But I’m out of guesses. Good luck, //mirabilos -- 13:37⎜«Natureshadow» Deep inside, I hate mirabilos. I mean, he's a good guy. But he's always right! In every fsckin' situation, he's right. Even with his deeply perverted taste in software and borked ambition towards broken OSes - in the end, he's damn right about it :(!
