Aha, I've got that on another PC here with Mandrake 9.0.
So...let me see...ah, yes indeed: "/bin/sh -> bash".
Hmmm, wonder why Mandrake has that?

Anyway, the conflict arises when using the /bin/sh on my FreeBSD system.

Right. Only is, that I have no time for it now. I'm jumping in a plane
soon, have to prepare a few presentations before that. I won't be "on-line"
until second week of January. I hope you or someone else can deal with these
minor problems.

But I like your script and the way it eases the procedure to get a backtrace.
It should go into some subdir of CVS any time soon.

Cheers,
Rob.
