[9fans] vncs - suicide

[Lucio De Re]

I have:

cpu% history /386/bin/vncs
Aug  7 05:35:01 SAT 2004 /386/bin/vncs 469227 [proxima]
Aug  7 05:35:01 SAT 2004 /n/dump/2004/0906/386/bin/vncs 469227 [proxima]
May 20 20:18:47 SAT 2004 /n/dump/2004/0807/386/bin/vncs 472667 [none]

and the newer version fails:

cpu% vncs
cpu% vncs 822: suicide: sys: trap: fault read addr=0x14 pc=0x0000b8b0
server started on display :1

although as the owner of the host (eve, in other words) I do not seem
to have the same problem.  Also, the previous version works quite
adequately.

Acid reports:

but it's not clear to me why this happens as
/sys/src/cmd/vnc/exportfs.c:441 is the line highlighted below (in my
copy of the source, which ought to be up to date, but I suppose it
need not be):

	lock(&fs->fidlock);
	h = fid % Nfidhash;
	for(f = fs->fid[h]; f != nil; f = f->next){
>>>>>>>>>>>
		if(f->fid == fid){
<<<<<<<<<<<
			unlock(&fs->fidlock);
			free(nf);
			return nil;
		}
	}

Any suggestions?
