I try to kill -ABRT on a preproduction platform running ser0.9.9+cvs and
a coredump is generated.
The only difference I see is the system. Preproduction running on Red
Hat 4 wherease the production platform runs under Red Hat 5.
Is that can make any difference ?
Regards,
Adrien.

A command issued by the FIFO can lead to a
restart of how we see in the
logs "messages" ?
If "kill" is sent over the fifo, you will see only one of the DBG()s:
"SIGTERM received, program terminates". Note that you will see it in the
log only if debug>4, or if you replace it with a LOG(L_CRIT, ...).
