Hello everybody!

The test java/lang/ProcessBuilder/CloseRace.java was reported to
intermittently fail.
The test timed out, which should mean that at least one of the child
threads was never interrupted.

I couldn't reproduce the failure, but I suspect it might happen due to
call to interrupt() before the child thread became alive (I'm not really
sure if it's possible to be non-alive after call to start()).

It isn't. There's no reason the interrupt() would not be sent. More likely problem is that the thread gets stuck in those busy-loops for some reason; or the process.waitFor does not respond to the interrupt (not sure how that is handled).

Need a stack-dump of a hung process.

The fix is to explicitly synchronize children with the parent.

Would you please help review the fix?
