But I found someone else who was having similar problems and he reports he can still get stuck processes. I'll spend some time trying to reproduce his case to see if I can reliably make it happen somehow. He said with this patch it does change what happens - the process being debugged does notice that it gets hit with a sighup when he exits gdb but the process being debugged doesn't die. -- Ken Smith - From there to here, from here to | kensmith@cse.buffalo.edu there, funny things are everywhere. | - Theodore Geisel |
