linux_socketcall() returns Resource temporarily unavailable

Hello,
I have just installed FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE and decided to try to run a Quake3
server using Linux emulation. I've found that the q3ded program consumes 99%
of the CPU, leading me to believe there may be a problem with the program or
with the Linux emulation feature in FreeBSD.
Some details about my installation:
> uname -a
FreeBSD cutest.daemons.net 4.8-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE #0: Mon Mar 31 02:11:00 GMT 2003 root at freebsd-stable.sentex.ca:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386

gettimeofday(0xbfbfee7c,0x0) = 0 (0x0)
linux_socketcall(0xc,0xbfbfb970) ERR#35 'Resource temporarily unavailable'
The q3ded program appears to be in a loop, as it keeps executing these same
system calls. I believe the linux_socketcall() corresponds to recvfrom() since
q3ded creates a UDP socket and waits for incoming messages on that port.
I searched Google and the FreeBSD mailing list archive but could only find
one thread about this problem, but it was from December 2000 and did not
mention a fix.
Does anyone know what is causing this problem and how to fix it?
Thanks,
Clay McClure
