Hi,

I am seeing strange things with undo(1) printing "Warning: fake
transaction id ..." messages every now and then. Calling sync multiple
times, or waiting long periods of time does not change anything.

cd /hammer
echo "abc" > test
sync
undo -i test

test: ITERATE ENTIRE HISTORY

But then sometimes, without changing the "test" file, it does not print
the "fake transaction id" messages. It is pretty random, where printing
it has a much higher probablity than not printing it!

1. uname -a
   root@kvmdragon:/etc# uname -a
   DragonFly kvmdragon.ntecs.de 2.6-RELEASE DragonFly
   v2.6.3.41.ge5a8b-RELEASE #3: Tue Aug 17 16:27:07 CEST 2010
   root@kvmdragon.ntecs.de:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/KVM i386

Is this normal? Also strange that for many files I do not have a
history, even so I haven't set nohistory on them. Other than that the
system is behaving normal. I had a power-failure issue last night, so I
can't say for sure if it is related to that.

Any hints to find out more?

Regards,

Michael
