Thanks Peter. We found tusc off this thread and the resultant trace pin pointed the problem which was a bug with the semaphore code I think I fixed in unixODBC in 2004 - which explains why I didn't remember it. Deleting the semaphore fixed the problem temporarily but upgrading to 2.2.9 (or later) or recompiling without stats support is the only sure long term fix.
