Re: Behavior change in Dash pipes/read?

Hi,

Thanks for a quick answer!
Unfortunately those patches don't seem to make a difference, although
I may have failed to apply them correctly since I don't really have
any experience in patching or building C-things.

It seems that my test case still works in commit
6574d63a1163d8f97e2e9588bee80e0067080924 (hello is printed) but fails
in 1713d1d6592f09f23b5abfb4562cbe5a7615fb1a (hello disappears).
Does this ring any bells?

The test-case is just an unrealistic test-case, of course, but it does
seem to mimic my actual script failure.
I'm not able to test commit 657... for my scripts, since it just segfaults.
