That was helpful! I have stopped trying rebase combinations and looking for something else...

Thank you.

That's not a rebase problem.  It's apparently a concurrency problem of sorts.  While pulling up the per-user shared memory region, two or more processes are trying to set up the same mount points.

This is not supposed to happen.  Only the first process actually
*creating* the per-user shared memory is supposed to create the mount points.  The OS tells a process if it created or just opened a shared memory region, but for some reason both processes seem to think they created the shmem region and one of them then stumbles of the EPERM condition trying to create the root mount point twice.

I don't have a sugggestion, in fact.  Again, this error condition was supposed to be impossible, but somehow it isn't in your cluster setup.
