Issue #3013 has been updated by Markus Roberts.

Yeah.  There's a reason they put up the huge "Abandon all hope" sign over this 
stuff.

As for the SIGPIPE problem, I'm thinking that daemons writing to stdout is 
frowned upon, but that isn't a solution it's just shifting the blame.

My SIGCHLD idea and a half dozen variation have all gotten nowhere, with the 
complications you'd expect and one I hadn't thought of, at least explicitly: we 
aren't dealing with the OS directly and some of the cleverer tricks also run 
afoul of ruby's assumptions.

I haven't exhausted all the permutations, but one way or another I'm going to 
run out of options before to much longer.

Bug #3013: util.rb:execute broken on Ruby <1.8.3
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/3013

Author: Ricky Zhou
Status: Ready for Testing
Priority: Urgent
Assigned to: Markus Roberts
Category: exec
Target version: 0.25.3
Affected version: 0.25.2
Keywords: 
Branch: http://github.com/MarkusQ/puppet/tree/ticket/0.25.x/3013


Apparently the patch in ticket #2731 introduced one more issue by using 
readpartial, which isn't available until ruby 1.8.3 (RHEL4 at least is 
affected).  I'm not sure how this is normally handled in ruby, but if the 
readpartial function is not available, the code should fall back to sysread 
(along with some code for handling EINTR).

Anybody with better ruby knowledge know how this should be done?
