Re: testers needed prior to 1.5.19 release


Using the snap 20050914 20:03:52
================================

As I wrote the snap 20050914 20:03:52 fixed the problems with Borland C++
applications ("spawn.cc (av::fixup): Guard against problems reading an
executable which does not match Microsoft's documentation about PE
format") etc.

But I observed the following behaviour.

Running 'X' with startxwin.bat, when one tries to close the xterm window
clicking on 'x' button, the window is closed only after about 60 s!

There are no problems if one uses 'logout' or 'exit' or if one closes
directly the X server right clicking on the X-icon in sys stray.

The same behaviour is showed by snap 20050914 20:32:51
                                ----------------------


Snap 20050915 12:06:56
======================

With this snap the things get worse.

That behaviour remains but the keyboard layout is changed: the key '-'
prints '/', etc..

Not only.  
For the applications which failed with 'Argument...too long' now, Windows
(W2K SP4) says: ".. the application is not correctly initialized press OK
to close..."




In any case using Cygwin.bat (not using X) seems to work without that
behaviour of delay the closing of the xterm window.


Best regards,

    Angelo.
