[htdig-dev] truncated output from htsearch...a strace

[Aaron B. <ab...@mi...>]

I posted this as a question to the users list but have more detailed 
info that suggests this may be a bug with the system libraries...

These tests were ran using v3.1.6.

If i run htsearch from the command line and allow the output to go to 
the screen the results appear complete and proper.  If i run htsearch 
from the command line and redirect the output to a file via ">/tmp/pg" 
or from a browser via apache then the results will be truncated.  I have 
ran strace against htsearch with output to the screen and to a file and 
there are clearly some missing write()'s.

On the strace with output redirected to a file the write()'s are 
clearly much less even though the read()'s from the templates are the same.

Can someone with a little more intimate knowledge of htsearch help out 
and see what the problem might be?

Thanks,
