Since your're the first one to report such problem, and I had no such
problem before, I'd like to ask you to find out why it's breaking on
your system.
Can you isolate the problem with fakeroot?
I think you have a broken shm implementation in kernel/glibc or
whatever.
For example, can you do something like:
while true; do fakeroot touch test ; done
and does the system stay up or does it start giving out errors?
cowdancer and fakeroot tickle the same kind of place to hook into the
system, and thus it is entirely possible that there is some coflict,
that's why it's documented in README.Debian; however no such case is
yet reported. This may well be the first report, however.
regards,
junichi
