Bug #23393 for Net_SSLeay.pm: Make test hangs at the end on Win32

Oops! the report text became too long for rt to display, here is the important part for easy viewing: The symptoms are simple: At the end of running nmake test, nmake does not exit, it just hangs at ca. 0% CPU consumption. This obviously stops installation cold. This has been observed on Win32 / i386 (specifically Windows XP 5.01 SP2) with a self-compiled perl 5.8.8 and openssl 0.9.8b . All compilation is done with Microsoft C 13.10 (== Visual Studio.NET 2003) and the updated system headers (==Platform SDK) from April 2005. The self-compiled openssl is kept in the same dirs as perl itself, thus openssl.exe is in %PERLDIR%\bin openssl include files are in %PERLDIR%\include\openssl openssl lib files are in %PERLDIR%\lib %PERLDIR% is a custom location on my C: drive, source work is done in %PERLDIR%\src The original posting includes a transcript of me reproducing the bug by simply doing: Show quoted text
The transcript ends like this: All tests completed OK. --------------------------------------------------------------------- [ And here it hangs, with 3 running perl processes and no apparent activity!]
