In the forthcoming patch, I have proposed a possible fix for the ferret "Permission denied" error some have been getting.
I run sup under Cygwin. Before, when I was composing an e-mail and sup did a background poll and found new messages, sup would crash with the ferret error "Permission denied". I think that this has to do with Windows different file sharing semantics. I've been running with this patch for a while now and not had another "Permission denied" error. However, I have not been able to test it on a non-Cygwin setup. I also don't know if this is the proper way to address this issue. To me, it seems mery much like a hack. Is there a clean way to either close all open files, get a list of FDs in use, or get the maximum FD allowed?
