One of the regressions test consist to check what happen in case that to many DNS query are send to the server. Under Solaris ans Linux (in a VirtualBox), the test fails often. 8 query process are started in background in order to create the overload situation. After the processes are started a query process is started in foreground. Mostly the result is not as expected. The reason is that the foregrounf process is often started before all background processe are started. I have verified this we a few printf into the sources ans also inserted a sleep into the test script. Wit the sleep inserted before launching the foreground process all work fine, without it the test don't mostly not work as expected " defect closed other VirtualBox 1.5.2 invalid start order. jj.sarton@… other other
