Smooge, this is definitely information that we would like to know sooner
rather than later.  I haven't played with Citrix, but there's been an issue
with Real since RHL9 . . . as someone pointed out, try passing
LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.19 and see if that changes the behavior.

I'm not saying that Red Hat is going to be able to fix any issues with
commercial applications (as the fault may lay with the application and not
with Red Hat) but we would like to see how things are performing (or not,
as the case may be.)  Feel free to throw this stuff in Bugzilla as a
collection point.

Thanks,
