Holger> Hi efs-folks ! Holger> I've reported a reproducible hang (for me, at least) on NT4SP4, with the Holger> current efs-package for XEmacs 21. That is, efs-version 1.18/1.57.

This really looks like a bug in the NT subprocess support. -- Cheers =8-} Chipsy Friede, Völkerverständigung und überhaupt blabla
