One thing you might want to do is running the program in question using
"strace", which traces syscalls. (The Sun equiv is, I think, truss.)
E.g., instead of:
# ls -a
you would say:
# strace ls -a
This might show you where the code is failing, at which point you could
ask either these groups or the iBCS people for more guidance.
Best of luck to you.
