Subject: IMA and ETXTBSY


After the failure of open(2) with ETXTBSY, IMA produces wrong messages.
Here is a simple test script.

dir=/tmp
cp /bin/sleep $dir
ls -l $dir/sleep
stat -f $dir
$dir/sleep 3 & sleep 1
echo | /bin/dd of=$dir/sleep conv=notrunc && false
wait
rm $dir/sleep


The result.

+ ls -l /tmp/sleep
-rwxr-xr-x 1 jro jro 23504 Jun 18 14:26 /tmp/sleep
