gdb in -current forgets to close file descriptors 3 and 4 before execing the inferior process. ftstat output: bde z 9495 3 / 885 -rwxr-xr-x 9725 r bde z 9495 4 / 885 -rwxr-xr-x 9725 r bde gdb 9494 3 / 885 -rwxr-xr-x 9725 r bde gdb 9494 4 / 885 -rwxr-xr-x 9725 r Here `z' is the binary being debugged and 885 is its inode. This usually doesn't matter, but having 2 fewer than the normal number of fd's available might caused the debugged process to behave abnormally, and certain regression tests fail. Bruce
