Sounds like http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.shells.bash.bugs/11990 and the NEWS for bash-3.2 contains this entry: l. Several fixes to the code that manages the list of terminated jobs and their exit statuses, and the list of active and recently-terminated jobs to avoid pid aliasing/wraparound and allocation errors. I'd try out a newer bash version. Cheers, Ralf
