The immediate solution is to manually remove the offending config.pck.last file - one person reported he had to rename it with "mv" before he could remove it.
No one seems to know what the underlying cause or permanent solution is.

Hi again, I haven't deleted the file mentioned in my last post - I ran check_perms again following my last post & I'm going to wait & see what happens over the next week or so. Brad Knowles emailed me asking about if I'd upgraded from OSX 10.3.7 to 10.3.8 - to which the answer was yes. Perhaps this screwed things up - we shall see.
Bye for now, Terry Allen

Thanks Mark,
That fixed it, at least temporarily. I did have to change the name with
mv before I removed it.
