The same script does not busy-wait on Solaris. >How-To-Repeat: Save the following script to a file t.py Run "python t.py & p=$! && sleep 2 && truss -p $p" watch the output! [Why not just "truss python t.py"?? Dunno, truss gets confused somehow.] Run the same script on Solaris and see it do the right thing with poll() The equivalent wish script (which is /dev/null) also doesn't busy-wait on either Solaris or FreeBSD. ----- #! /usr/local/bin/python from Tkinter import * root = Tk() root.mainloop() ----- >Fix: Not known. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
