This seems to only happen on SMP machines.  Any insight?

If anyone is interested both David O'Brien and I are experiencing
what looks like data corruption under -current.

On a dual SMP AMD 1.9ghz box I'm seeing the vim port somehow corrupt
patched files.

I really don't have the time or energy to backtrack -current to
figure out when or why this started happening.  At first I thought
it had to deal with pipes, but afaik the vim port doesn't patch
files, it just does this:

/usr/bin/patch -d /vol/share/ports/editors/vim/work/vim61/ --forward --quiet -E -p0 < $i

for each patchfile in the port.

Please CC me, as I'm not subscribed to this list.
