For me, ndb/dns rarely trips the diagnostic.  In almost every case I've examined, the diagnostic is triggered when something in the process of forking.  The rfcmirror/idmirror scripts trip it with all the cp commands they run (although it's rc itself that's breaking).  mk blows up when doing the fork/exec of the build recipe commands.  I'm trying to collect a set of stack traces to see if I can find a pattern.
