I have the same problem. 'ps aux' drops core (current-940204 sources)
and w shows the above behaviour. Recompiling both programs static
(LDSTATIC=-static make) fixes the problem at the expense of some
diskspace.

This isn't a "real" solution, of course. Something seems to be wrong
with the recent change in shared library handling.
