Subject: A PAR program can't run (via system() ) another PAR program
Looks like when a PAR program tries to run another one (in this case they're both packaged in the same PAR), the second one fails because they both try to use the same tmp directory. error looks like this: myProgram: creation of /tmp/par_priv.1598.tmp/par failed - aborting with 26.

Sorry for my belated reply. This has since been fixed in PAR 0.80, and also solved more elegantly in the upcoming 0.81 release. I'd be happy if you can test the snapshot version and let me know if it works for you: http://p4.elixus.org/snap/PAR.tar.gz Thanks! /Autrijus/
