I've noticed this problem on the DS5000 in all three versions of epoch that
we've used here (3.2b, 3.2, 3.2patch1). Its just short of being annoying
enough to make me drag out the debugger and chase it.... (for all the good
that would probably do... :-)  I've not heard any of our sun or rs6000 users
complaining of this problem tho.....    mlb
