So I try running lines from these postinstall scripts manually.

In /etc/postinstall/bash.sh this code snippet kills everything:

    bash-4.1$ result=0
    bash-4.1$ test $result = 0
          2 [main] bash 2484 sig_send: wait for sig_complete event
    failed, signal -3
    4, rc -1, Win32 error 6
    <SHELL IS DEAD>

>From MSDN:

    ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE    The handle is invalid.
    6 (0x6)


So what is this?

    Bad compilation?
    Stack corruption?

Gerry
