Re: [Evolution] IMAP folders unresponsive under RH7.2

[Jeffrey Stedfast <fejj ximian com>]

I had a similar problem earlier tonight when I turned on my
flaky_network_write() wrapper around libc's write() call. This magical
function seems to break kernels, because in kernel 2.2.17 on my laptop,
all of Evo's pthreads crash whenever errno gets set to EAGAIN or
EWOULDBLOCK which are both valid error conditions when writing to a
socket...

Now, kernel 2.4.7 (default redhat 7.2 kernel) will block forever in a
select() call after errno gets set to EAGAIN or EWOULDBLOCK in a
multithreaded library (compiled even with -D_REENTRANT).

Therein lies your problem...go and complain to your local kernel
developer and get him/her to fix it.
