Thanks for your quick reply.
We upgraded to Service Pack 2 and it solved the problem. Nevertheless,
I'll try to reproduce the issue under a Win2008 SP1 VM to see whether
the patch makes a difference. 8.2.x win32 binaries are built using MinGW
right?

Hi,
We've come across this issue on 8.2.15 on a Windows Server 2008 instance. I
noticed the patch hasn't been applied to the 8.2 branch yet. Any chances that
this will be part of an eventual 8.2.16 release? Do you need more testing and
feedback before commiting the patch?
Thanks,
Etienne Dube

8.2 as well, no?
8.2 has a different shmem implementation - the one that emulates sysv
shmem. The patch will need to be changed around for that, and I
haven't looked at that. It may be worthwhile to do that, but it's a
separate patch, so let's get it out in 8.3 and 8.4 first.
If it's at all hard to do, I could see deprecating 8.2 for Windows
instead.
I haven't looked at how much work it would be at all yet. So let's do
that before we decide to deprecate anything. As mentioned downthread,
8.2 is a very widespread release, and we really want to avoid
deprecating it.
Here's an attempt at a backport to 8.2. I haven't examined it in
detail, but it passes "make check" on mingw.
Comments?
I've also built a binary that should be copy:able on top of an 8.2.13
installation made from the standard installer, to test this feature.
Anybody on 8.2 on Windows, please give it a shot and let us know how
it works.
