Sorry for the long time it took me to answer, but I'm really out of time.
I've checked the trace you sent me, and the problem is that the info I need
is missing:

3191: read(4 [/dev/log], 0x40019888, 1024) = 1024

The contents of the buffer is not displayed. It's strange that HPUX says
that 1024 bytes could be successfully read, something should terminate that
string, the question is what it is?
