I made a lot of changes that will be reflected in the recent snapshot but I am still seeing occasional memory corruption. It is really sporadic and difficult to track down. This is what I've fixed: 1) a long standing "wait_subproc: wait failed, nchildren..." error. 2) stopped looping if there's an error on exit. 3) argument passing in #! scripts (e.g. #!/bin/sh -x) 4) don't attempt to use ntsec on drives which do not support it. 5) run strace program at higher priority for slight speed improvement. I've also added the pseudo-JIT debugging from Egor Dada, although I wouldn't recommend using quite yet. It has a tendency to invoke itself a little aggressively. It obviously needs to be a little more integrated with gdb. -- cgf AT cygnus DOT com http://www.cygnus.com/
