Gilbert,

What's the absolute pathname of the product-queue of the previous (pre 6.9) 
installation?

Ah! Nevermind.

Ah! The above indicates that the ldmadmin(1) script used the pathname of the 
product-queue for the pathname of the surf-queue. I've found the problem and 
will release a new version as soon as we also resolve the 
putting-the-product-queue-in-a-ramdisk issue.

No, it's a problem inside the ldmadmin(1) script.
