I managed to duplicate a hang by changing your .bat file to use "sleep
2" rather than false.  I'm investigating now.

I noticed that you checked in some additional changes on the 16th that look related to this, so I tested again with today's snapshot (20130118).


I was still able to produce hangs using the same test case. The symptoms are slightly different than I had seen previously. bash hung 2 out of the ~60 times I interrupted the test. No error messages were displayed this time. Upon pressing ctrl-c, bash hung for 60 seconds. I was then greeted with the "Terminate batch job" prompt and responding 'Y' terminated the process tree as expected. Pressing ctrl-c while bash was hung for that 60 seconds appeared to have no affect.

My apologies for this distraction if you don't yet expect this to be fixed.

Tom.
