Subject: rm behavior using under tcl/expect/dejagnu

Trying to define a dejagnu-testsuite for a litte program I see after
finishing the runtest-script two rm-tasks running (?) under bash, by the
ps-command. They couldn't be killed (answer was : No such pid)! After trying
to detect the source of execution of these two rm.exe programs I found the
source within the framework.exp script of the dejagnu-system. The original
command was :

    catch "exec rm -f $outdir/$tool.sum"

The behavior of such command is not limited to the use by an expect-script,
but also seen during execution of such command by any tcl-shell (I tried
also the native WIN32-Tcl/Tk-port). It seems as the behavior is related to
the shell (bash) or rm.exe program.

I use WinNT 4.0 SP 5 , Cygwin B 20.1 .

Can anyone help ?
