Ok, I'm not really familiar with the parisc land. I've (wrongly) assumed that since
in the dmesg output, it should be related to the kernel (as it is on x86 and sparc).
It is not.

It maybe related to the hardware (two inboard ethernet interface + 1 quad board).

I do care (:p).
-------------------
seb@hpnux:~/dev/portmap-6.0$ ldd /sbin/portmap
libwrap.so.0 => /lib/libwrap.so.0 (0x40018000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x4070e000)
libnsl.so.1 => /lib/libnsl.so.1 (0x402f5000)
/lib/ld.so.1 (0x400c2000)
--------------------
So it seems to lie in the libc.so.6 (which happens to be libc6-2.5-9 in unstable).
It happens with kernel 2.6.18-4-parisc64 too. Maybe a userland problem.
More disturbing is the fact I can't debug the problem.

Ok, that is quite comforting.
