I can reproduce it on etch, but I can't reproduce it on lenny. This is
what I get:
$ echo foobar | procmail $PWD/buggy.procmailrc
procmail: Skipped "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
Your system had Linux 2.6.24-1-686 and libc6 2.7-6, and it had the bug.
lenny has Linux 2.6.26 and libc6 2.7-18, and the bug seems to be gone.
On a chroot etch system running a lenny kernel, the bug seems to be
gone as well.
Seems like a kernel bug to me.
Note for anybody reading this report because of the "help" tag:
Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to try every
intermediate version of the kernel (using git-bisect) to discover
which one is the first that made the bug to go away.
Thanks.
