I posted recently about some GP's running COFF binaries (Specifically, WP6
for SCO). They appear to run ok, but always give me a SegFault/general
protection when they exit.. The only adverse effect seems to be that the
license reservations arent being removed.
Well, I went and reinstalled WP, and as I was doing so, some 6 billion of
these floated up the console. Not just from COFF binary processes, either.
I was getting them from things like rm and ln..
Could someone PLEASE tell me what these are, and how to fix them?????
I can see it has something to do with locks, but WHAT????
