As Georg-Johann points out here:
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2017-07/msg00028.html
updating the kernel alone does not fix the issue.

These patches do all circle around pty and tty devices,
but in the strace file I see a pipe(2) command
creating the fileno 10 and the sequence of events is
as follows:

pipe([7, 10]) = 0   (not in my previous e-mail)
clone() = 16141
clone() = 16142
write(4, "spawn: returns {0}\r\n", 20)  = 20
--- SIGCHLD {si_signo=SIGCHLD, si_code=CLD_EXITED, si_pid=16141,
--- SIGCHLD {si_signo=SIGCHLD, si_code=CLD_EXITED, si_pid=16142,
read(10,...,4096) = 4096
read(10,...,4096) = 2144
read(10, "", 4096) = 0
close(10) = 0
wait4(16141, [{WIFEXITED(s) && WEXITSTATUS(s) == 0}], 0, NULL) = 16141
wait4(16142, [{WIFEXITED(s) && WEXITSTATUS(s) == 0}], 0, NULL) = 16142

All data arrive at the expect process, but apparently too quickly.


Thanks
Bernd.
