I run it more than twenty times before saying there is no more bug
I also insert the code in my previous message and try with password in
CVSROOT or password at the prompt (usually it changes the frequency of
the bug).

Enventually, if there is a fstat(4,&s) in the first call I can't
reproduce the bug.

I was thinking this beaviour was confirming your assumption that it
was an AIX bug.
So, I've ask my administrator to upgrade the OS from maintenance level
9 to 12, and ask our AIX support to put an incident at IBM.
But I'm rather pessimist on the result (As the bug cannot be produce
in a simple way : CVS must be installed, a server running..., and it's
still in AIX 5.1)

If you want to do other tests, to be sure of the cause of the bug,
there is no problem. The more cleaner the bug will be handle the
better it is.
