Thare are a couple of jhb's patches for linux rpc calls. However, none of those calls are used when a programm is failing. Hence the following Alexander's proposal to concentrate on linux tests seems right. > Maybe instead of playing with gdb/ddb/printfs it may be also possible > to use the linux test project testcases to frind the problem.
