Subject: Bug when using Kernel.fork with File.print

Hello,

the following stripped down script prints one time "hello" to
stdout but four times to testfile which IMHO is not correct:

---
class Test
     def do_something
         fork do
         end
         Process.wait
     end
end

aFile = File.new("testfile", "w");
print("hello\n")
aFile.print("hello\n")

[1, 2, 3].each { |x| Test.new.do_something }

aFile.close
---

Tested with Ruby 1.8.0-preview1 (with errara patch) on Linux
and Ruby 1.6.8 on Windows (cygwin). Can anyone confirm that
this is a bug or ist it just me?

Regards,
Ralf
