It's already 7 years since I worked in Perl, so I'm not sure what is going on,
but I did a basic test making variable openfork_available local, and that gives
the expected results:
Line: 1415
# Start a child process safely without using /bin/sh.
sub safe_read_from_pipe
{
my $openfork_available = "MSWin32" ne $OSNAME;
unless (@_)
...
I checked in the Subversion repository and this issue seems to be solved in
trunk in revision 14782. I'm testing it now, but that probably solves
my problem. The version I used was from release 1.2.3.
Patch attached to first post in this thread may be ignored.
regards,
Lieven.
