I always start at the end, which in your case includes this:
>10489: write(2, " l d . s o . 1 : / u s".., 163) Err#96 EDESTADDRREQ
>10489: write(2, "\n", 1) Err#96 EDESTADDRREQ
Unfortunately, the write buffer is truncated and we cannot see the whole
message going to stderr (file descriptor 2). Try adding the 'w' flag
to your "truss" command ("... -fwo 2 /tmp/amandad.truss ...") and see
if that doesn't show some more info.
