Strange... this means that parent process died unexpectedly.
Works fine fore me. In my case this happen once due to unknown
options(new opt " -fsetattr=1" passed to fsstress explicitly) because i've
forget to rebuilt fsstress via make. Can you please explicitly rebuild,
and check one more time to be 100% sure.
