[I was wondering where all the bug reports where :-)....this just had to turn
 up when I wanted to start integrating my lockf code into fs]

I can't reproduce your problem on my system (and I tried clam, sh 1.1, sh 1.4
and a couple of dup2 tests). What actually happens? I didn't really change 
anything in do_dup except for some very minor cleanups (it might be a good 
idea to rebuild your system with the original code for do_dup and do_close). 
BTW I noticed that the test programs distributed with Minix-ST don't test 
dup2 at all.
