This looks like some sort of pipe trouble to me. It is repeatable using such a command:
$ gunzip < changelog.gz | less ^Z $ fg q iput: Aieee, semaphore in use inode 00:00/42088, count=2 $
I.e. stop "less" using ctrl+Z, use fg to bring it to the foreground, then quit "less" using q. Piping from gunzip to less (or more) is necessary, and using ctrl+Z and "fg" is necessary too. The inode number listed is different each time, so I guess it isn't the i-number of the file. The pipe maybe?
I use 2.3.16 UP, glibc 2.1 (debian potato), VESA fb, and this happens both on console and in xterms. Being root or user makes no difference. There *seems* to be no ill effects after this. I don't really know what to look for though, other than no crash after 4 days.
Please tell if there is more I could do, or some patch I could try.
