GPG Lockfile (concurrency) issue, keyring lost: awarding 300$ for bugfix

[Stefan Haller]

Hi all

Sorry it took so long, I was on a business trip last week.

And sorry to bring bad news, it did not help. Unfortunately the combined 
output is quite mixed up. But since it looks a bit if it happens after a 
complete import, it could probably not cause much trouble anymore...

Additionally, I can find several occurrences like this:
mmap(0x00000000, 8192, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE|PROT_EXEC, 
MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANON, -1, 0) = 0xFF3A0000

which indicate that "" is probably not NULL, but an empty string in truss 
output.

Do you have other ideas, what to try?

times(0xFFBEF0A8)                               = 760107013
time()                                          = 1093259488
