Well, it _could_ work if gnulib would relax a couple modules to LGPLv2+ instead of their current LGPLv3+. Meanwhile, mingw _does_ let us create a pipe already non-inheritible (that is, pipe2(fds, O_CLOEXEC) _does_ work on mingw as an LGPLv2+ gnulib solution). If you don't mind, I'd rather conditionally NAK this patch and try the pipe2 approach instead, since the added in-function #ifdefs detract from readability. -- Eric Blake eblake@redhat.com +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
