Hello,
I'm looking into your bug report. I'm afraid I don't have much to go on in
tracking this down; I just tried running Mathematica on a couple of machines
in E40 and it seems to run fine (i'm sorry it took so long to get to this
but we have a large backlog).
Assuming you have been working with it since your initial report, are you
still seeing the problem? Does it seem to be localized to a given machine
or cluster or does it show up "anywhere, anytime?"; is there anything you
are doing in Mathematica that seems to trigger it? Is there anything
unusual about the machine you are working on, other programs you are
running at the same time etc.? Is there anything that I can try that will
trigger the problem so I can see it?
