... snip ... on top of everything you wrote, look at the number of "sleep" calls sprinkled around ... pretty clear someone knew there were timing issues: $ grep -r sleep * AFI/Makefile: sleep 2 AFI/Makefile: sleep 2 AFI/Makefile: sleep 2 AFI/Makefile: sleep 2 AFI/Makefile: sleep 2 AFI/Makefile: sleep 2 AFI/Makefile: sleep 2 AFI/Makefile: sleep 2 AFI/Makefile: sleep 2 AFI/Makefile: sleep 2 AFI/Makefile: sleep 2 AFI/Makefile: sleep 2 AFI/Makefile: sleep 2 AFI/test/afi-controller/Makefile: sleep 2 ... etc etc ... man, this looks fragile. rday
