Yes it's a known issue. However I'm at a standstill until people get

to me on solutions. I've written a privsep patch, but there is an issue
as to how SIA sessions are initialized and handled that is tripping
everything up.
If I had an OSF/1 box w/ SIA it would be easier to debug, but alas I have
to depending on the kindless of strangers. =)
