Hello,

I'm glad I'm not the only seeing this issue. The hang is on the Shell.Close call, which in turn calls the POSIX "close" function. Mode 1 Shells exhibit the same behavior.

I haven't been able to find any workarounds.

Unfortunately, if you MUST call Shell.Close, the answer is to wait for a RB update. However, what if you don't call shell.close and instead simply set the shell to Nil (if you feel you must do your own cleanups?

This appears to call close under the hood, as I recall.
