I agree, named pipes are probably a better plan, perhaps a better solution overall than the way we currently pass FD numbers on the command line. Do named pipes work work as expected through wine? We would have to be careful to clean them up again afterwards.

I've implemented IPC with named pipes and it appeared to work through wine but now I'm investigating an issue which causes GHC to "freeze" when talking to the external interpreter when it is not running on a TTY (ie: in a build process)

Hi Alterto, What ever happened to this? Is there any way I can be of assistance? It would be great to get this merged. Cheers, - Ben
