Indeed. And why does putting that dll at the end of the list make any
difference?
My next line of inquiry resulted in putting a 'sleep' in just before the rebase
invocation.
Huh, that fixed it. Weird.
Then I went looking, and what happens just before rebase is called? zcat and
egrep are called.
zcat is a link to gzip which is a .exe file.
egrep, however, is a shell script
$ cd /usr/bin
$ cat egrep
#!/bin/sh
exec grep -E ${1+"$@"}
$
So apparently the shell isn't shutting down fast enough before rebase is
invoked.
OOPS.
Of course none of this fixes my real problem with why Python is unable to get a
lock...
