Alex, I was mistaken. I just deinstalled fam and installed the new gamin port and found that the real problem is that imapd is dumping core not gamin.

I always think memory but switching back to fam it again works perfectly. Not much help I'm afraid. If there is anything special that I can test for you, let me know. I've got both compiled now so it isn't difficult to switch back and forth. ed
