Problems with strace (3.99.1 or 4.2) under Linux 2.4.0-test4

[diekema@bucks.si.com (diekema_jon)]

	I am trying to trace system calls under Linux 2.4.0-test4,
	but it isn't working.  I was able to do this with a
	previous environment:

	- TQM 860T module
	- Linux 2.2.13
	- strace 3.99.1

	Does anybody have any hints on how to fix this?


	Current Environment
	-------------------

	Hardware:

	- EST SBC8260
	- MPC8260 Rev A.1 CPU/CPM/BUS: 166/133/33 Mhz

	Environment:

	- Linux: 2.4.0-test4
	- MontaVista CDK: 8xx toolchain
	- Using the /opt/hardhat/devkit/ppc/8xx/target for the
	  NFS mounted root filesystem

	Failing Example (MPC8260, Linux 2.4.0-test4):
	---------------------------------------------

bash-2.03# /sbin/strace -V
strace -- version 3.99.1
bash-2.03# strace cat /dev/null
execve("/bin/cat", ["cat", "/dev/null"], [/* 15 vars */]) = 0

bash-2.03# strace -V
strace -- version 4.2
bash-2.03# strace cat /dev/null
execve("/bin/cat", ["cat", "/dev/null"], [/* 15 vars */]) = 0

	Working Example (x86, Linux 2.2.14):
	------------------------------------

dell 235} strace -V
strace -- version 4.2
dell 236} motd

Red Hat Linux release 6.2 (Zoot)
Kernel 2.2.14-5.0 on an i686
