Re: Strange ACATS fails in acats.log

[Laurent GUERBY <laurent at guerby dot net>]

BUILD alone means that the sequence

gnatchop x
ls * > tmp
main=`tail -1 tmp`
echo "BUILD $main"

got an empty tmp file.

I see that from time to time, more on SMP/dual core machines, if you add
sync or sleep it goes away but the run is slower. I've always assumed
it's some kind of process/kernel/fs race condition (I don't see
anything wrong in gnatchop code).
