Well this function:
if ( !open (X, ">>", "$conf{LOG}{DIRECTORY}/$conf{LOG}{FILE}") )
{
warn ("can't open log file");
return;
}
print X scalar(localtime), "($LOG_LVL_PREFIX[$lvl]) $msg\n";
close (X);
was what was causing the hold up on linux. Perhaps because the open request
was coming from multiple threads of the same process it was treated
differently, because that is append mode, I believe.
I know that I was surprised by this result too, I had the feeling that there
are usually not this kind of problems in UNIX.
