Confirmed.
20111207 is forking as expected and no more strange fifo message.

For the spinning problem I put the test case here:

http://matzeri.altervista.org/works/test_case/prova2.tar.bz2

running  ./system_test.sh
some of the tests should dump and return.

++ ./xprobe_3dnow.exe
./system_test.sh: line 14:  3256 Illegal instruction     (core dumped) 
./xprobe_3dnow.exe

on 20111124 that works, while from 20111129 to 20111207 the
programs never return and stay frozen.
