A script I found that tests for parasite problems

Run the attached script - results in endless loop because parasite does not attach
Comment 1 gnome_bugzilla 2010-07-16 20:19:55 UTC 
the attached script expects an image to be opened / created with image ID "1"
Comment 2 gnome_bugzilla 2010-07-16 20:41:26 UTC 
NOTE:
624555 is for gimp-parasite-attach (global parasite)
624567 is for gimp-IMAGE-parasite attach (image parasite)

I just tested gimp-drawable-parasite-attach and that seems to be working.

NOTE: Gimp 2.6.6 gimp-parasite-attach was highly unreliable (worked
intermittently and inconsistently).  I find that gimp-parasite-attach in 2.6.10
does not work AT ALL.

I found Gimp 2.6.6 gimp-image-parasite-attach was reliable.  I find that
gimp-image-parasite-attach in 2.6.10 does not work AT ALL.
