           Summary: WebKit2 WebProcess may fail to finish launching and
                    hang in a weird state
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows 7
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: InRadar, PlatformOnly
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit2
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: jhoneycutt at apple.com


If the UI process begins launching the web process and exits before the call to CreateProcess completes, the web process will hang in an odd state.


* STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open taskmgr, and watch the processes that get launched
2. Open a Cygwin terminal, and run WebKitTestRunner with no arguments
3. Repeat step 2 until a WebKit2WebProcess remains running while WebKitTestRunner has exited

* RESULTS
A web process will launch and stick around after WebKitTestRunner exits. You cannot attach a debugger to the process. printf debugging indicates that WebProcessMain() is not reached.
