Thanks. That would mean a single change is the culprit, but I need a way to reproduce the problem to be able to fix it (other than just reverting the patch). > FWIW, here is the fork() code I discovered this with: > > http://git.gnome.org/browse/glib/tree/glib/gspawn.c?id=2.32.3 That's a bit heavy as far as testcases go. Thing is, I can't reproduce it. If that's a generic problem, shouldn't this also occur when trying to start a program from bash or tcsh? I deliberately removed a DLL from my system, but there is no hang at all when trying to start an affected application. Can you please provide a simple testcase? If you can reproduce it with given binaries from the distro, I don't need source code, just the steps and the names of the binaries to reproduce.
