Hi Anibal, I see that the patch in the -8 release fixes the issue only for ia64 -- but AFAICT special handling is also required for hppa (see refs in an earlier msg of mine in this bug). I've built the -8 release on hppa but I can't confirm that ncpumount fails with a runtime error because it's meant to be run only as setuid (which I obviously can't in any hppa buildd host). -S
