What error do you get? Lastly I had something similar with fpc writing
to fast to a non-blocking stderr channel. I haven't had time to do for
my code, but if you get "ressource temporartily unavailable"-like errors
switching the file to blocking mode might help.
Something like
fcntl(fileno(stderr), F_GETFL) & O_NONBLOCK
or the pascal equivalent should do.
HTH,
