No, this is a none bug in the BTS.  It appears to be an arch-specific
problem.  Here's a strace on "anacron -s":

I haven't looked beyond this yet, though...there are bigger fires...

Can't comment on this one, but I want to point out that we probably have
hundreds of PPC-specific bugs in our already built packages.  I just found
an endianess problem in ext2resize the other day.  That's why we need to
get boot-floppies stable for all subarchs so we can get more PowerPC
testers.
