Obviously, the output of gdb can't be trusted. It just doesn't proceed in single step, as the following log shows (this time without O_TRUNC). I should really update gdb... Yes you should! :-) Anyway, the bug is in libc. The conversion of the open flags given to dbopen is indeed not done in the right way. It is easy to solve but there is one other issue that I want to resolve before posting the patch. The good news is that recompilation of tsort is not necessary. Once the bug in libc is fixed tsort will magically start working. By the way, the next release of the GNU textutils will contain a tsort (written by me, plug, plug) that doesn't depend an Berkely DB.
