For non-German readers:
the "error" message: "Der Vorgang wurde erfolgreich beendet." means
"The process finished successfully".

This message comes from the Windows API as an error code, in detail it
happens when GetExitCodeProcess() fails. I probably will never
understand why Microsoft return error messages telling everything was
fine. Maybe it's just that surprising on Windows that something didn't
fail that it is noteworthy.

Hmm, just post here if it happens again... and remember the -d command
line option ;-).

Enrico
