for me that fail with a debian lenny kernel
address@hidden:~# uname -r
2.6.26-1-686

or another box
barton ~ # uname -r
2.6.27.39

On the debian lenny box I try the test out of the chroot in `seq 1 50`
without failure.
Same behavior inside the chroot. I need to test again inside the chroot but
before final coreutils package is installed. That's in this configuration
where the failure look to happen.
