- |This has only been attempted on the client systems and only with 4.7.

- |Any suggestions, similar experiences, etc.?

- Call the 800 number and ask for U412815. It will give you a new /unix
- which has this bug fixed.

- The problem has to do with ptrace()'ing a file where the data size is
- larger (smaller?) than the text size.
