I just noticed the following problem: you can't copy over an
executable after it has been run once since boot time.
This is fairly easy to reproduce:
$ cp /bin/sh /tmp
$ echo echo hello there | /tmp/sh
hello there
$ cp /bin/sh /tmp
cp: /tmp/sh: Text file busy
I noticed this after applying the patches John Dyson committed
today but that's apparently not where the problem comes from, as
this works with yesterday's kernel too... I can't say if it
works with a kernel older than last 20 December.
