Hi all,
If it helps, the patch that I was referred to a week or so ago regarding the linker for Borland C++ 5.5 hanging did work, after some modifications. It is attached to this message. Basically, I translated the VirtualAlloc() call into it's NtAllocateVirtualMemory() equivalent to solve the unresolved symbol errors, and just plain left out the check at the end of the function for the region size. Hope that's OK.
Obviously this patch isn't suitable for inclusion into Wine proper since it seems to merely patch over a different problem. I've recompiled Wine with full debug information and such, and if someone knows what I should look for or do, I'd be more than willing to provide debug output to nail down the error.
I've tracked down the infinite loop to NTDLL_wait_for_multiple_objects() in dlls/ntdll/sync.c. For some reason, whatever the program is waiting on doesn't ever seem to occur (unless, of course, the above patch is applied?!?).
Please let me know if there's anything I can do to help close this bug permanently. :-)
