Comment (by marcusoverhagen):
In r33050, a similar bug was closed with the following comment
''Net_server starts services by invoking fork() followed by exec(). If the
latter fails (for instance because the service isn't installed), the
forked child is invoking exit(). This in turn unloads libbe, triggering
static cleanup code in BMessage, which deletes a couple of message ports
that were inherited from the parent during the fork.[...]''
Doesn't the same problem apply to the global BLocker member of
'''BLooperList gLooperList;''' in LooperList.cpp? I had used
BLOCKER_ALWAYS_SEMAPHORE_STYLE during testing.
What happens to other libraries global port/sem/thread ids after a
fork/exec/exit?
