What is this /lib/i686 directory?  It has to be something distribution 
specific.  We use Gentoo and have no such directory.

We run a 2.4.26 kernel and constantly have problems with segmentation 
faults.  These occur when a program using pthreads migrates, so a 
workaround is to lock (e.g. mosrun -4 some_command) a process to a 
particular node.
