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...
