A bit too late? File sub_proc.c already uses APIs not existing in win9x (SetHandleInformation, InitializeSecurityDescriptor) ... has anybody complained? But I do respect your feelings. SearchPath() exists in win95 ;) Just posted the patch, it is #17433 -- hope it can help to further development in sub_proc.c. It seems to be related to #15718, #7201.
