Here is an strace of procmail when called from getmail

I have the following option in my getmailrc to call procmail

local = clsmooth(_at_)nc(_dot_)rr(_dot_)com,|/usr/bin/procmail

It is returning -1 to getmail and causing it to abort. I don't know
why or what the -1 return means.
...
02_Dec_2001_05:30:06_-0000 Aborting... (command "/usr/bin/procmail" returned -1
())
...
_exit(0)                                = ?))


The last line quoted above shows that procmail is exiting with a status
of zero.  That getmail is seeing a different exit status would seem to
indicate that there's a bug in getmail, libc, or the kernel, most likely
the former.
