[MiNT] Mint pipe problems

[Markus Fröschle <markus@mubf.de>]

Hi all,

I'm posting the first time here, although I'm not new to the list and  
not at all new to TOS/MinT. I'm working on Didier Méquignon's Coldfire  
code trying to get USB working when time permits (which it didn't for  
quite some time now, unfortunately).

After moving from Linux to a Mac, I was trying to reuse my old TT  
partition images under Aranym to have the second best Atari available  
for tests and development (did not want to go through building a cross  
compiler again for yet another platform).

This worked out nicely so far. However, I have some annoying problems  
with pipes in the shell. Whenever I use piped commands (especially  
with grep), I get consistent crashes. Grep'ing through files works well.

"ls | grep pp" crashes (bus error), "grep xxx yyy" does not crash.  
Grep is the latest package from the sparemint site.

I'm currently using 1.16.3 (ALPHA) since this is the only version  
where I managed to get proper networking.

Are there any known problems with pipes in this version?

Regards,
Markus
