My /usr/sbin/rpc.statd dates from 11 April 2006, although that is the
date it was built.  The sources could well have been old enough to not
have your big fix.  I have recently built 3.99.19 from sources dated
about a week ago.  As soon as I can get everything settled down, I'll
update the system.  I won't be able to monitor them as I'll be out
of town for a couple of weeks (and said machines are inaccessible from
outside).

And I've confirmed that with the present system, rpc.lockd does crash
and dump core.  It roughly coincides with the MacOS X system complaining
that the server could not be contacted.

Thanks.
