Subject: Fix https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=48454
X-Git-Url: https://git.internetallee.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=72823b07812ff12b8cabaa9238eca2d54dd61475;p=tomcat7.0

Fix https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=48454
Give the stderr reader a chance to finish before terminating the CGI process. This avoids "Bad file descriptor" errors. The period to wait is configurable.
Based on a patch by Markus Grieder
