Most certainly not, since I have seen crashes within only 150
iterations. Note that only one subprocess is run at any time. When I do
not delete the subprocesses, there can be more than 1000 of them. I will
try to trace it down further. So far, when I slow down the program to
observe it more closely, the problem disappears. Also, I found that
today's Emacs 22.2.90 works for a long time without producing a crash on
the same program and system, while I can produce a crash with 23.0.60
every time in a few seconds.
