FreeBSD Port: quagga-0.99.9_7

Hi Boris,

The problem I haven´t solved since February, when I met with him again by chance in July when dealing with another problem, a new multicast api in FreeBSD 7. I will write another report the following e-mail on multicast.

I found out that this strange number "[: 34978: unexpected operator" is not at all a number of lines of code, but it is PID!

It is a PID of daemon, which was running, but for some reason has been terminated, for example by signal 11 and an integral condition is that in /var/run/ quagga is the rest of the daemon, the pid file is opened.

So when a user runs /usr/local/etc/rc.d/quagga start|stop|restart so it just appears these nonsenses on some unexpected operators.

I can not repeat it because I do not know how to simulate freezing process expediently.

But I am sure that this is PID number, because in the list of running processes "ps aux" were two processes ospfd and one of them had the same number like the number in error message.

When I was killed the process with the number from error message and restarted quagga, the error message suddenly disappeared, it would lead to think that, between February to July the error unexpected end of the process become, and that I am, of course, it could not even see, and finally that it is rare phenomenon.

Respect,
Daniel

Very strange, but looks like this is a problem in system's rc, as my rc does not have 34978 lines of code :)
