OK, I found it. 

The database files for the bugs DB were not world readable, I don't know 
why it didn't toss an error but I've noticed that on Irix the error 
handling is not quite up to snuff.  I frequently get the "Unhandled 
exceptions" instead of telling why it threw an exception.  In this case, 
I suspect he tossed on of those, but it never gets to the xml file, but 
ends up in never never land somewhere.

Thanks,
Jim.
