Hi !

One of my programs produces the following error message:

libpvm [t40027]: pvmclaimo() message from task t340007

Now, if I got this right ( I took a look at the source in lpvmcat.c )
this has something to do with a nonexistent buffer for task output.
I am using pvmfcatchout in my program and the man page says that the
master will not exit until
(a) I call pvmfcatchout(0) so that he no longer waits for output
	from spawned tasks
(b) all spawned tasks exit.

I tried both but without effect. What reason might there be for
buffer to cease to exist ? I do get quite a lot of task output
through the masters stdio before the error msg comes in.
Thanks for any hints to whats going wrong.

		Axel
