The patch causes the shell (bash) to hang. Further investigation with the Windows XP task manager reveals that hundreds of "a.exe"s are being generated (when the testsuite gets to pipetes2.pas). They are generated faster than I can kill them. I eventually had to resort to shutting the system down.
Perhaps a different problem (old Dos/Windows bugs with spaces in arguments) again. Try this patch?
Solves the problem. Thanks.
BTW, does the problem also occur with pipetest.pas?
No. So it means that the whole testsuite passes now.
