Tru64 Unix 4.0F PK5 and the kloadsrv daemon

Is there any information about repeated failures of the kloadsrv daemon with
4.0Fpk5? The daemon sometimes dies but mostly it is appears to stop working.

I notice it when things that things I use that depend on the kloadsrv daemon
won't work until I kill the daemon and start it and a simple kill isn't
enough, I use kill -9...

I have turned on debugging like this:

        /sbin/kloadsrv -d 2 -log /var/log/kloadsrv.log

and when it stops working I see this in the logfile

    kloadsrv: kls_server_ipc_receive_request: calling msgrcv()
    kloadsrv: kernel_lookup_package("kernel", "namecache", symbol_addr) = 0;
        *symbol
    kloadsrv: Error 81: kls_server_ipc_receive_request: msgrcv() failed
    kloadsrv: calling ftok("/sbin/kloadsrv", 'A')
        The message queue has been successfully re-created.
    kloadsrv: kls_server_ipc_receive_request: calling msgrcv()

but it seems that the re-creation is not as successful as Unix seems to think
it is so I will make the debugging a little louder.

Any thoughts?
