What OS was that on?
I've just tried again with VC6 SP6, VC8 SP1 and VC10 SP1 and I get the
exact same set of tests hanging with all three of them. This is
WIndows 7 64-bit. I'm specifying WIN64=undef in the build for a 32-bit
build, but otherwise have changed nothing except the CCTYPE.
(The fork.t failure is interrmittent; so is the io_sock failure. But
the *hangs* are 100% reproducible every time on both machines
available to me, albeit both Win7 x64...)
