Dear All, we have had problems on some of our machines (all Fedora 14), where rpc.idmapd used to die with an `I/O possible' message at (basically) random times. A strace suggested the issue being in nfsopen() where a signal type is reset before notification is disabled; a signal at just the right time might be the cause of the problem; see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=684308 I am now proposing the (trivial) patch to the list as well.
