I'm new to Wine development and was checking out bug #11 (from "tasklet" meta-bug #406) I added some comments for it. It seems beyond the scope of a beginner type bug. See bug for details. Also, the latest build was having problems getting configure to recognize freetype which was already reported as #435. It has some more details now.
Something else I came across: the most recent tarfile for CVS dirs, "wine-cvsdirs-20011226.tar.gz", is missing the directory for "wine/dlls/crypt32/CVS" Should this be reported as a bug?
I was going to look at bug #323 (close stdout/stderr for wineclipsrv, ie. run as daemon) Any suggestions or comments for that? Wouldn't the system call daemon() take care of it pretty easily?

I moved it to a new list called FIXMEs. It is intended as an intermediate list for fully diagnosed bugs. That's the third list but don't worry, I intend to stop there. * Tasklets http://wine.codeweavers.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=406 * FIXMEs http://wine.codeweavers.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=455 * Tasklist http://wine.codeweavers.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=395
Now, I really must get going on that contrib page.

I was more thinking of calling fork+setsid directly but daemon() could do the trick. The question is whether it is portable. Checking... It is there in FreeBSD good. But it is not there on Solaris.
So it is probably best to use fork+setsid directly. It is actually quite simple.
