One of the patches that I reported to ksh yesterday had an unintended
sideeffect. It was the one to xec.c to make pipelines work correctly
when job control is in effect. Here's a better version. Search for
TFORK: to find where this should go. (The version yesterday fixed
pipelines that involve only normal programs. However those involving
builtin commands failed. E.g. "history | more". The following code
seems to work in all cases, though I think I may still be fixing a
symptom rather than the disease.)
case TFORK:
{
int no_fork;
sync_io();
#ifdef SXT
if(jobstat.j_flag==0)
jobstat.cur_job = next_job();
/* find job number and create synchronization pipe */
if(jobstat.cur_job < jobstat.maxjob)
if(pipe(jobstat.pipe)<0)
jobstat.maxjob = 0;
#endif /* SXT */
