No, you didn't. :)

In any case, emulation@ (CCed) is the better list to discuss this. I =20
don't remember if the fixes for this are in -stable yet, I'm sure =20
Roman will chime in and say something about it.

 From which date is your -stable, or better, can you please go into =20
the linux compat directory in /usr/src (where linux_futex.* is) and =20
provide the output of "ident linux*"? This way we know for sure at =20
which compatibility level your linuxulator is.

Bye,
Alexander.
