Hi, thank you for your detailled questionaire, we may have found it ... see below. I am attaching a tarball. If that is not what I am supposed to do, please let me know.
Best wishes
Frank

Oh!
... ok, you got me on that one - I use a pawlogon.kumac including
a shared library. When I disable loading that shared library, the problem
disappears. I can provide the code anyway. See the attached tarball.

TMPDIR is not set. comis creates these files.

No

no up-to-date Sid available
