I have tried
lapw1 uplapw1_1.def
It works o'k. But if I make
lapw1 uplapw1_1.def &
it comes to background, executes (normal CPU %, regular filling of the
vector file, at the end - all files look normal with zero error file),
and after execution there is ever lasting lapw1 in list of command top.
It has now zero CPU % and looks like it waits something for a long time.

So, lapw1 does not return from background &.

What patch did you mean?
