I come back to you with this problem because it just supply a solution fo=
r
this problem and do not explain me the reason.

I do not reach to know if it is a problem with seteuid() (IIRC in glibc)
or a kernel problem.

I already try to get a coredump, but it seems that in this case (fork SEG=
V)
linux (SQUID FAQ) is not able to produce any coredump [what I unfortunalt=
ely
verify during numeruous test].

Is somebody have any better idea to help me to have a better idea of the
actula problem?

Thanks in advance,
    Joel
