Terry,<div><br></div><div>I had long since coded around the problem. At this point, I no longer have the test environment to cause the intermittent conditions of the process hang. I could code something up, but; your question is the first response to this bug report since &quot;<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; border-collapse: collapse; ">reiko &lt;<a href="mailto:j.k.langridge@gmail.com" style="color: rgb(17, 65, 112); ">j.k.langridge@gmail.com</a>&gt;&quot; on 7/28/2008. I suggest it can be closed, and would be reopened when encountered again. I appears nobody is working in that area of code. </span><br>

<br>
Should this be closed or is this still a problem in 2.7 (release candidate out now, final soon) or 3.1?<br>
