This is definitely not what is happening for me.
One additional data point. This morning, I happened to be staring vacantly
at the Command Prompt window when bjam finished. A message displayed to the
effect "could not kill build_monitor.exe, process not found"
(I don't have the exact warning because later messages scrolled it off the
screen.)
Since I know (from seeing the Command window it opened) that build_monitor
started to run, it looks like something killed it. Could it have killed
itself?
Could me minimizing the build_monitor Command window be a problem? If I'm
using the machine for other work, I minimize the build_monitor window to
give me more screen real estate.
