* generic/tclIO.h (CHANNEL_INCLOSE): New flag. Set in
* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_UnregisterChannel): 'Tcl_Close' while the * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_Close): close callbacks are run. Checked in 'Tcl_Close' and 'Tcl_Unregister' to prevent recursive call of 'close' in the close-callbacks. This is a possible error made by implementors of virtual filesystems based on 'tclvfs', thinking that they have to close the channel in the close handler for the filesystem. * generic/tclIO.c: * generic/tclIO.h: * Not reverting, but #ifdef'ing the changes from May 19, 2004 out of the core. This removes the ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** for channel drivers it introduced. This has become possible due to Expect gaining a BlockModeProc and now handling blockingg and non-blocking modes correctly. Thus [SF Tcl Bug 943274] is still fixed if a recent enough version of Expect is used. * doc/CrtChannel.3: Added warning about usage of a channel without a BlockModeProc.
