I apologize for not including that info, which I thought I had included. Upon futher checking, here are the differences in a couple of libs: Both machines have tcl7.6 Debian (1.3.1) RedHat (4.2 Biltmore) /lib/libc.so.5.4.33 /lib/libc.so.5.3.12 /lib/libdl.so.1.8.10 /lib/libdl.so.1.7.14 /lib/libm.so.5.0.9 /lib/libm.so.5.0.6 Running the regression test program(dbtest) all tests pass except for the deadlock test (within dbtest, r dead) This is the debian box: dbtest % r dead Dead001: Deadlock detector tests Dead001.a: creating environment Dead001: 2 procs of test ring All processes have exited.
