Well, nuts. I was pretty sure that patch was involved.
In the first letter you said:
After adding one or more lines to the disklist file, only the last 100
lines get checked, then an amandad and a selfcheck process is hanging
around: ...
So the next step is to make sure amandad and sendsize were compiled
with -g, get them hung and attach a debugger to them, then get a stack
traceback ("where") so we can see where they are stopped.
If your OS has gcore, you might use it instead of attaching the debugger.
That way, if there are other questions (e.g. "what is in variable X"),
you'll be able to answer them right away without rerunning the test case.
If you need more explicit instructions on attaching a debugger to a
process or running gcore, just ask.
You can either do this with the patch or without, but let us know which
way it was so we can get line numbers matched up.
