Hi,
current status:
have applied this patch to testcurl.pl on my autobuild host:

--- testcurl.pl.orig 2007-04-01 15:59:50.000000000 +0200

     my $text=$_[0];

+ my $process = <I>;
+ chomp($process);

+ kill 1, $process;
+ }
     chdir $pwd; # cd back to the original root dir
 
     if ($pwd && $build) {

now if you look at my autobuild logs you can see that after each run it finds the pid files present;
so I believe that our test servers currently do not remove their pid files when terminating...

in addition I've flagged all *.pl files in ./tests to 755 - although doubt this is relevant.

Guen.
