In my Linux workspace, I get a COMM_FAILURE exception, which I suppose means that the IFR has crashed and doesn't reply to the destroy() call in question. In my Windows workspace, the test runs fine.

I don't see any recent entries in the changelogs, either to ace/Configuration.cpp or to the IFR code, that seems at all related to this bug. Do we know how long the test has been failing?

At least since x.6.7 because OCI TAO 1.6a has the same behavior.  It may go back much further since I see 1.5a and even 1.4a tests failing the same way, but I don't know how much DOC IFR code has been merged into those branches.

The "last year" graph for Linux only on http://remedy.nl/test_stats is hovering around 50% for the whole year.

Still the case
