I can assure you that flint is alive and well.

"core" is a 64K file, flint is running 2.4.19 with knfsd, assabet is
running 2.5.68.

Looking at the filesystem on flint, it's created a file called "core" of
zero bytes:

  File: "/mnt/src/tests/core"
  Size: 0          Blocks: 0         Regular File
Access: (0600/-rw-------)         Uid: (    0/    root)  Gid: (    0/    root)
Device: 907        Inode: 625311     Links: 1    
Access: Mon Apr 21 16:31:39 2003
Modify: Mon Apr 21 16:44:03 2003
Change: Mon Apr 21 16:44:03 2003

NFS traffic wise, I'm seeing:

<silence>

There don't appear to be any further NFS requests from "assabet".

ARM or does it also occur on i386?

ARM.  No idea about x86.
