There should be none. The best example of such an executions is compiling some
project with djgpp. You invoke GNU make (djgpp-compilled) which in turn
starts, for example, cc1.exe and the latter invokes cpp.exe, ld.exe & as.exe.
So there! You have a whole chain of djgpp proggies invoked - nested 3 levels
down.

^^^^^^^^^that might be a problem. Check out the FAQ (sorry but
don't remember which section). It says that QDPMI is sometimes incompatible
with djgpp programs. Remove it from your system and try to run tclsh with
CWSDPMI (make sure you have the latest version - revision 2).

Again, this is probably QDPMI problem - search FAQ for Quarterdeck.
