Could you explain how to check for this problem, and why it is important to fix it in mga8?
Christiaan, you are right (in fact you find weird that a php mga6 bug is triggered by motif ;-)), of course the bug leftover is #27362 not #23762. Sorry for the typo. There is a better description there. As for fixing, with the bug there, running ps -ef for getting list of processes, you get something listed like: [xmbind.sh] <defunct> while with this bug fixed, there is no more such defunct process.
