Ok, how do I go about debugging this:

The dir_perms_world_writable_sticky_bits test on ONE rhel6 machine is failing, but
sometimes it does not.
When I run an evaluation with the stig-rhel policy, I get
OpenSCAP Error: Unable to receive a message from probe [oval_probe_ext.c:584]
No definition with ID: oval:ssg:def:509 in result model. [oval_agent.c:182]
Two quick checks:
- What version of openscap are you running? Is your ONE machine
running a different version?
- Does the output file in /tmp get created, and if so, does it have
any clues?
