How to interpret your answer, is there a problem with libpipe or not? BTW: The kill command comes from a timer called from in debian/rules. I tried to increase TIMEOUT from 1800 to 3600, but the build seems to bail out at the same place for me. Trying again with TIMEOUT:=4800 now. > > I've also seen very strange things happen not related to the actual > > builds. A hurd/gnumach/libc bug?? > > The pipe issue is probably more from libpipe. I don't get it, libpipe is a hurd library, right?
