Chris Moller: ptrace bug 227952 <-> frysk bug 4052 <-> FC6 
patch exists for new fc6 kernels. 1.2925.fc6. 
Did this bug happen in rawhide kernel? Can somebody check?

New Frysk in rawhide: new rpms new ecj, new libecj. Frysk is from
yesterday cvs.

test results printed in posix style, like with dejagnu. UNRESOLVED
instead of SKIPPED, UNRESOLVED instead of BROKEN. Cagney will make the
junit changes and the automake changes. Not trivial. 

Version of junit included in frysk is not upstream main one, it's kind
of dead branch.

autobuild: 2 fc6 boxes x86 and x86-64. Runs Unattended. Still working
on the reporting piece, with a concise summary including recent
changes based on file revisions. A test fails intermittently.  Test
with full cvs checkout and test with incremental cvs update of the
tree.

For intermittent tests: use -r option indicating the number of
repetitions of an individual test. 

3595 detach-multi-thread is the test that fails intermittently.

There are stress tests that are disabled by default. Resource
intensive, and non deterministic. Should those be included in the
autobuild/autotest.

Do both install tree testing and build tree testing.

Gnome 4.0
Java 1.5
Java-gnome

No updates on major work items from RH. People are working on their
tasks.  Mark: will send update on his work to the list.  How about
other people?

Sami: stabilizing monitor window integration with source window:
looking at source of running thread and backtrace.  Bug fixing against
druid and monitor.

Compilation of frysk-imports generates thousands of
warnings. cdtparser and junit. Observed with fc6 and rawhide.  No
value in trying to clean those up. We should tweak the flags then,
-Wall is too agressive for these directories.  If the goal is to have
the frysk build be warnings free.  Elfutils also has new warnings.

Suggestion to post status reports to the frysk mailing list. There
isn't much posted about what people are working on and what problems
they have encountered or what interesting features they are designing.
Mailing list is a bit dead, it's not inviting for new people to join.

Next week: gui review: hpd again -> Stan and Tim.

As a follow-up to this, the testcase Kris provided in
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=227952 works not
only in kernel 2.6.20-1.2925.fc6, but in kernel 2.6.20-1.2922.fc6 as
well.  The bug was written under kernel 2.6.19-1.2895.fc6; if you can
upgrade to either of the above kernels, things should work.
