           Summary: Patch 7166 introduces InstallShield regression
           Product: Wine
           Version: CVS
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-kernel
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.com
        ReportedBy: keldon at ont.com


Patch 7166 (Started moving functions that deal with Unix file descriptors to a
separate fd object) causes a regression in Garmin's Mapsource installer.  Before
this patch, the installer would complete the installation.  Now, it hangs in the
initialization.

I'll attach a log showing where the hang occurs.  It seems to be a bug with
named pipes.  Looks like a process writes to one, but the process on the other
end hangs in a call to ReadFile().

Note that when backing out the mentioned patch, I also backed out a later patch
to the wineserver (make process/thread ids small ints).  Just backing out this
second patch has no effect on the hang.
