hello, world\n

is anybody else seeing this? On a fresh 9-STABLE/amd64 as of July 7,
with all ports compiled from scratch. Qbittorrent (2.9.11) freezes after
about 10 to 20 seconds, reacts to mouse clicks only after a minute or
so; the window isn't redrawn when it was obscured by other windows and
/var/log/messages has this to say:

Jul  7 11:09:56 hal9000 kernel: WARNING pid 89448 (qbittorrent): ioctl sign-extension ioctl ffffffff8004667e
Jul  7 11:10:50 hal9000 kernel: WARNING pid 89448 (qbittorrent): ioctl sign-extension ioctl ffffffff8004667e
Jul  7 11:11:21 hal9000 last message repeated 38 times

There's no way out other than sending two SIGINT (CTRL-C) to kill qbittorrent.

It looks like this is similar or even the same problem as in
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2010-June/057360.html
If it was ever fixed, then it looks like it reappeared.

Regards,
