   This is on Debian sid, Linux 2.6.6.  I couldn't figure out how to
   get a backtrace.  However, from the forked child, I see:

   [pid  9461] close(4)			= 0
   [pid  9461] close(4)			= -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)

   (Full strace attached)
Thank you.  It confirms my first guess.

   Will try the patch.  How does the CVS version rank in terms of
   stability?
Pretty good :-).  The only risk is that I converted all the sources to
use Cstr/String13, and I have to admit I introduced some translation
errors.  I fixed those I found, but it could be that there's still
`just one more bug'.  I would be very interested if you (or anyone
else) find it out, or tell me everything you tried is OK.

Thanks anyway,
Bruno.
