If you don't have anything more precise, it's not worth the bother. The Wine bug database is full at 80% of worthless crap without any technical detail, no need to add more stuff (note that I don't deny that the other 20% *is* interesting, of course). I have one test app that does that - leave one, or more threads hanging, and it's not an easy problem. I know the patch that caused it, I don't understand why, and it only does it on one of my 2 computers. On the other box, the problem never occurs. It's probably system dependant (glibc or even kernel) If your problem is as simple as that, a simple report will not be sufficient anyway :-/ >>Personally I have a script, killwine, in my path for tidying such things up; >>it kills wine, winedebug and wineserver and then deletes the socket.
