QuickBuild version 8.0.5

Build step A is a 'script' step that will produce a JUnit report if a given condition is met. If the condition is not met no report is produced. The next step, step B, runs on the same agent as step A and is a Publish JUnit Report step. If no JUnit report is produced in step A, step B will 'cycle' for about an hour before failing. The step log for step B is blank. The entire build log shows only the output below. Note that the build itself is not timing out, as it does not run long enough to reach the build timeout threshold.
