Build Identifier: I20100608-0911

Recently I have been deploying ptp-4.0 on a Cluster with Xeon server node.
And very strangely I found that the gdb process can't be started on the compute node.  The reason is that under some special conditions the local variable "name" is not correctly set, which consequently causes execlp() failed.



Reproducible: Always
