I just ran % ktrace -f /var/tmp/bash.trace bash $ ^D % kdump -f /var/tmp/bash.trace | less and the first file it opens (after lots of library loads by the linker) is 21164 bash NAMI "/Library/Gentoo/etc/bash/bashrc" which is clearly a prefix path. I don't see it *ever* touching a non-prefixed file. That said, could (one of you) try the same as I did above and look through the output of kdump to see if you see it opening non-prefixed files? (Don't dump the file here on the list, or any other public place. If you want me to look at it, send it to me privately.) -- Fabian Groffen Gentoo on a different level -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
