I have confirmed that I have no errant .qmail files. I believe my
permissions are correct, at least I have removed all but
/bin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin from my path and the errors persist.
/bin:/sbin
drwxrwxr-x 2 root bin 7168 Sep 2 2000 bin
drwxrwxr-x 4 root bin 4608 Aug 17 2001 sbin
/usr/local/bin
drwxr-xr-x 3 bin bin 4096 Nov 21 17:20 bin
I have googled the errors and found generally nothing of use to me. At
this point I am seriously considering going back to 2.55.
