One thing I see in that script is there is a line rm -rf $dir/tests.$$ & that will be run "in parallel" due to the stray "&". However, I also don't see at least parts of the rest of the script that you quote, so maybe I'm looking at the wrong version (looking at trunk) or you have added debug statements, so maybe yours has more such stray asynchronous lists. Hope that helps. Cheers, Ralf
