I'd suspect a kernel problem with 2.3.10, unless you're missing SysV IPC
support. My 2.2.9 PReP kernel only fails on the anydbm.t and ndbm.t when
it tries an ndbm store. I get an errno 22, invalid argument. This is at
line 101 in anydbm.t and line 106 in ndbm.t. That line tries to make a
call with a "null" argument.
Exluding ndbm support causes the anydbm.t test to fail elsewhere.
