It really doesn't matter which file - the problem occurred with any file that setup
wanted to write for which it did not have write permissions. If you want an example,
I remember it occurring with /usr/lib/ldscripts/i386pe.x but it could have been any
other file.
I think there may be a more general problem here. I messed up all my file
permissions, which is how this problem came to light, and I am slowly putting them
right.
However, I am getting exactly the same problem with crontab. It doesn't have
permission to write in /var/cron/tabs, and when you crontab -e and finish editing, it
hangs up, using 98% CPU.
Here is some strace output - it repeats endless variations on this and never exits (it
has to be terminated). Changing the permission of /var/cron/tabs to 777 makes the
problem go away.
