heap_modifytuple: repl is \-62

Marc G. Fournier <scrappy@hub.org> — 1998-02-10T13:03:46Z

Solaris x86 v2.6 is broken...has been for weeks now, but to date, nobody
seems able to come up with a solution, or a suggestion on further
debugging, so once more I bring it up :)

The first question is, of course, is anyone else seeing this using Solaris
x86?

If not...*where* should I try to debug this?  It just hangs there once I
hit this, process CPU time remains static...

We are initializing the database system with username marc (uid=100).
This user will own all the files and must also own the server process.
