cyrus imapd 2.2.10 "disappears" on Solaris 8 host

[Kirsch, Mathew (Matt)]

I have a little bit more information.

It seems now that the master process "disappears" when I hit CTRL-C at the
command prompt?!!? For example, if I'm watching the process with Solaris's
truss command, and I hit CTRL-C to get out of the truss session, the master
process goes with it.

Since last night, I haven't hit CTRL-C in the console and the process has
been munching merrily along.

I've had that problem with 2.2.x on Solaris 9. I'm still not sure how I 
fixed it, as it seemed to be dependent on what libraries were in my 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH and a lot of other weird environment stuff (it worked 
when I had started after doing su, but not when run as a "real" root 
login / rc script).

I fixed stuff by building sasl, imapd and openssl as static as I could 
in their own little tree.
