Dave Siktberg seems to have narrowed it down to 2006-05-12 21:25.

What's interesting is I'm running AOLserver 4.0.10 on x86/Linux 2.6.15.6
with glibc6 2.3.5 with no OpenACS and all my scheduled procs are firing
just fine.

Can we get everyone who's experiencing this problem to provide a few
things:

1) ns_info patchlevel
2) uname -a
3) glibc version

I'm betting this is an older Linux or LinuxThreads or glibc problem.  I
could be wrong, of course, but gathering this info will help to figure
it out.
