Okay, I upgraded to 2.2.9-27mdk last night on my home box.  And awoke this
morning to a hung slocate process.  I have spent the better part of the
day trying to figure out just what it was that was causing it.  And I now
have it.  I have an identical system that didn't have the problem, so I
compared to the two trying to figure out the difference.  The difference
it turns out is I have a vfat filesystem mounted on my home system.  If I
unmount the vfat filesystem, slocate no longer hangs either.  So what
could have possibly changed in the vfat filesystem code between
2.2.9-23mdk and 2.2.9-27mdk???  Because it works fine on 23...
