The following test fails at about 4080 loops.
Note that this is cumulative: if you run first with
mono redirect-stdout.exe 2080
and then
mono redirect-stdout.exe 2080
it will fail again.
The error is:
Unhandled Exception: System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: Some sort of w32
error occurred: 14
in <0x003d8> System.Diagnostics.Process:Start_common
(System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo startInfo, System.Diagnostics.Process
process)
in <0x00013> System.Diagnostics.Process:Start ()
Subsequent runs will give a SEGV in unmanaged code after a few warnings:
** (redirect-stdout.exe:21278): WARNING **: process_set_current: error
creating process handle

** (redirect-stdout.exe:21278): WARNING **: CreateProcess: error creating

To be able to restart the process, ~/.wapi is removed.

As discussed online, this is a dup of the resource starvation issue.
