Hi,

I stumbled upon a curious problem with the ant parallel handling in conjunction 
with Windows XP.

Let's say I have 3 targets: call1, call2 and call3 which are executed in a 
parallel environment (2 threads). Each target calls a hello world windows GUI 
application that has to be closed manually and prints an exit confirmation 
afterwards. Ant starts call1 and call2 correctly. Now the curious thing is that 
ant will sometimes (not always) wait for _both_ tasks to end before it starts 
the third task. No output is written until both tasks are finished. The 
applications do nothing except opening a window with a "hello world" text.

I tried to reproduce the problem by replacing the hello world calls with  
various sleep commands, but this seemed to work fine, the third task is always 
started immediately after one of the first two tasks exits.

Any insights?

Regards, Thomas
