Why would you want to allow opening same mailbox by two simultaneous
processes?

Please look carefully at the output.  The notices are not "harmless". 
Note that the message "successfully opened mailbox" only appears
*once*.  It should appear twice, because there are two processes who
both want to open the mailbox.  It only appears once because one of the
two processes is killed by a USR2 signal as I've described.

I don't know why the patch I sent didn't help for you.  It reliably
solves the problem for me.  Perhaps I picked bad preprocessor symbols
and it's not actually getting compiled into the object code on your
system.  Can you put debugging code in to see if the arm_signal calls
are actually happening?

Thanks.

I get the same notices, which seem quite harmless anyway. And your
patch did not make any difference whatsoever.

libc-client-2002e-18.1 RPM from Fedora Core.  I checked the current
c-client sources from washington.edu and they seem susceptible to this
problem as well, judging from an examination of the source code.  The
USR2 functionality has been in c-client since 1993, as far as I can
tell.

Exactly what c-client version you linked PHP with?
And how was it compiled?

There's a patch which makes this problem go away at
http://stuff.mit.edu/~jik/php-5.1.1-imap-usr2.patch.txt.  However,
rather than using the #if statement I used to figure out whether to
enable the relevant code, you may want to insert a check for the
function arm_signal in the c-client library in the configure script,
define a cpp symbol if the function exists, and use my code if that cpp
symbol is defined.
