Hi!

Recently i discovered some very annoying problems with -current (as of today,
but i think the problem started few weeks ago).

If i debug a program inside gdb , and use 's' commands i sometimes get 'Can not
access memory at XXXX', after that the debugged program hangs with D status in
ps. Any 'ps' or 'w' commands issued after this hang too (with the same
status). The strange thing is that root can run ps without any problem, but ps
-a or ps -u will hang even for root. The only thing i can do to fix the
situation is reboot :-( .

Best regards.
