Description Jared Burns CLA 2002-12-04 15:06:30 EST 
org.eclipse.ui.externaltools.internal.ant.view.actions.SearchForBuildFilesAction
creates a ProgressMonitorDialog and calls run(false, true, runnable). This
opens a progress monitor dialog that does not contain a Cancel button, even
though the "cancelable" parameter is set true. Calling 
run(true, true, runnable) with the same runnable opens a progress monitor
dialog with the Cancel button.

If the Cancel behavior requires "fork" to be true, the API should say so.
However, I think the presence of a Cancel button is often most important
when "fork" is false.
