Hello, while trying to get the gnash CVS version to work I noticed that on my system (FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE) truss obviously has problems tracing firefox: truss prints somewhat "random" error messages and traces only some of the system calls firefox makes (opening a local file doesn't show up, for example).
The output looks like that (I can provide the truss log if somebody is interested): [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$ truss -f -o ff.log firefox truss: PIOCWAIT top of loop: Input/output error truss: get_struct 0x0: Bad address [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$ truss -f -o ff.log firefox truss: Cannot malloc 1081891232 bytes for pollfd array: Cannot allocate memory [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$ truss -f -o ff.log firefox truss: cannot open /proc/0/mem: No such file or directory truss: cannot open /proc/0/mem: No such file or directory truss: Cannot malloc 1162889024 bytes for pollfd array: Cannot allocate memory [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$ truss -f -o ff.log firefox truss: PIOCWAIT top of loop: Input/output error truss: PIOCCONT: Input/output error truss: Cannot malloc 1162889024 bytes for pollfd array: Cannot allocate memory [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$ truss -f -o ff.log firefox truss: PIOCWAIT top of loop: Input/output error truss: Cannot malloc 1162889024 bytes for pollfd array: Cannot allocate memory [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$ truss -f -o ff.log firefox truss: cannot open /proc/0/mem: No such file or directory truss: Cannot malloc 1162889024 bytes for pollfd array: Cannot allocate memory [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$ truss -f -o ff.log firefox truss: PIOCWAIT top of loop: Input/output error truss: PIOCCONT: Input/output error truss: cannot open /proc/0/mem: No such file or directory truss: Cannot malloc 1162889024 bytes for pollfd array: Cannot allocate memory [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$ truss -f -o ff.log firefox truss: PIOCWAIT top of loop: Input/output error truss: get_struct 0x0: Bad address [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$ A similar Problem also occurs with KDE applications, but only if the application needs to start kdeinit (i.e. if other KDE applications are already running there is no such problem): [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/sbin$ truss -f -o /tmp/ggg kedit truss: PIOCWAIT top of loop: Input/output error truss: PIOCWAIT top of loop: Input/output error truss: PIOCCONT: Input/output error truss: PIOCWAIT top of loop: Input/output error truss: PIOCCONT: Input/output error truss: PIOCWAIT top of loop: Input/output error truss: PIOCCONT: Input/output error truss: PIOCWAIT top of loop: Input/output error truss: PIOCCONT: Input/output error truss: PIOCWAIT top of loop: Input/output error truss: PIOCCONT: Input/output error truss: PIOCWAIT top of loop: Input/output error kbuildsycoca running...

Can someone else also reproduce this problem/is this a known bug or is just something broken on my system? If you need more details please let me know.
