Hi, A couple of days ago the inspect report was failing on the release branch and not the trunk branch (not currently, because I reverted the change which caused it). It turns out that this happened because inspect uses the program execution monitor. Inspect runs subversion to get the version information, but I wasn't running it in a subversion checkout, so the child process fails, which causes a signal which the execution monitor detects, throwing an exception. I guess it's thrown from the top level, so I can't catch it. I've got a patch ready which fixes this by running subversion from inside a nested execution monitor so that the exception is thrown at a more appropriate location. But this is a bit verbose, is there a better way to handle this? Perhaps temporarily stop the program execution monitor from handling failed process signals? I don't want to disable it for the rest of the program. Secondly, this doesn't happen on trunk. It looks like the program execution monitor isn't detecting the failure. This might be a bug in the new version. thanks, Daniel
