Re: cvs 1.11.2 server hungs on sigpipe

[Alexander Melkov]

What is the "current development version of CVS"?

Which version of buffer.c should I look to?
I look to 1.22 - that assert is still there:
http://ccvs.cvshome.org/source/browse/ccvs/src/buffer.c?rev=1.22&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup
(see stdio_buffer_shutdown)

What is the problem with changing just one line? You can _safely_ exit the 
flush function when
corresponding file stream ceased to exist.
