I’m getting megabytes of output from ‘sh validate’ on windows.  It looks like this

  629  151745 [main] sh 2880 fhandler_base::fhaccess: returning 0

  291  152036 [main] sh 2880 faccessat: returning 0

7757  159793 [main] sh 2880 fhandler_base_overlapped::wait_overlapped: wfres 0, wores 1, bytes 7

179457 1608947 [main] make 11484 fhandler_base_overlapped::wait_overlapped: wfres 0, wores 1, bytes 7

   99  159892 [main] sh 2880 fhandler_base_overlapped::wait_overlapped: normal write, 7 bytes ispipe() 1

  180 1609127 [main] make 11484 fhandler_base_overlapped::wait_overlapped: normal read, 7 bytes ispipe() 1

  139  160031 [main] sh 2880 write: 7 = write(1, 0x6000396A0, 7)

  142 1609269 [main] make 11484 fhandler_base::read: returning 7, binary mode

  139 1609408 [main] make 11484 read: 7 = read(5, 0x60005B4B0, 7)

  136 1609544 [main] make 11484 read: read(5, 0x60005B4B7, 193) blocking

4693  164724 [main] sh 2880 set_signal_mask: setmask 0, newmask 80000, mask_bits 0

but with hundreds of thousands of lines.  (I have not counted)

I believe that it may be the result of this line, earlier in the log

cd "/c/Users/simonpj/AppData/Local/Temp/ghctest-8fa9s6rk/test   spaces/./plugins/plugins07.run" && strace $MAKE -s --no-print-directory -C rule-defining-plugin package.plugins07 TOP=/c/code/HEAD/testsuite#

Note the strace.

That in turn was added in your commit

    Clean up Windows testsuite failures

    Summary:

    Another round and attempt at getting these down to 0.

Could you perhaps have made a mistake here?  Currently validate is unusable.

Thanks!
