Actually, I think there is a problem on 2.8.1.472 which wasn't  
addressed, then either in 2.9 or 3.0 another problem was introduced  
which somehow interacts with the first problem and results in the  
Standalone problem.

Seem to me that all this effort by all these different people is  
getting us no where fast. The way I would try to get a handle of this  
problem is to add code to the Standalone builder that dumps into a  
log file. Over the years I have found that this is the quickest and  
most reliable way to solve problems like this. However that file is  
protected.

So, why doesn't RunRev provide a version of the Standalone builder  
that dumps a trace to a log file?

Seems like so little effort to do this and it would have save a lot  
of wasted man hours.

All the Best
Dave
