David, could you please try the following:

1. upgrade to PCP 2.2.2-11 if that is not already the version you're
   using

2. get the source rpm or the source tarball from oss.sgi.com for this
   version

3. apply the attached patches to the two pmie source files

        - src/pmie/src/act.sk
        - src/pmie/src/dstruct.c

   rebuild and install the pmie binary

4. run your test case using -Dappl2 on the pmie command line

5. mail me the pmie configuration file and the std err from the
   pmie process with -Dappl2 and a ps -ef | grep pmie listing

I've been looking at the current top-of-tree source and cannot see
how we can be _not_ calling waitpid() at all the appropriate places,
so hopefully these additional diagnostics will give me a clue.

Thanks.
