What is more : sometimes I get the same type of messages on
an Intel Xeon based system.
I think that I have a chance of 1 in 500 before I get the same
problem, and this is with a program which forks several
subprocesses and enters a loop with ticks of 1 s for waiting on
finished processes and launching another one.
I think it is more an error in the operating system, which may
get worse by running on AMD.

Sorry but this is not a "now try this" type of debugging activity. It
would require quite a bit of effort to track this problem down.
As I've said before, it would require physical access to a 64 bit system.
