I've had similar problems on gsyprf11, but recent kernels seem to be better. I believe that this is more likely on SMP kernels and we have never had a stable one on gsyprf11. You can kill expect and GCC will move on to the next suite. I haven't seen this on the C3750. This definitely isn't a GCC problem. The problem never occurs under hpux. It's probably some kind of timing or locking issue that just happens to get tweaked by a particular test. Dave -- J.
