Linux != Linux Kernel. The Linux kernel implements the interfaces as defined
by the Unix standards. The interface to a user application is a library
problem. If you want a cute interface you can write a library for it or
use one of the exiting libraries

Then you have another kernel bug or your request to delete it after attach
failed and you didnt check the errno. What kernel are you using. If its 2.0
and threaded then it could well be a real problem

Can you mail me the actual code and I'll try it. Include some info on your
machine configuration and kernel rev with it.
