Timeout : Failed to load child procees

[GoogleCodeExporter]

See http://goo.gl/ll2FvQ for common issues.

Issue Description:
unable to run selenium tests based on latest Chrome version (38.0.2125.104 m) 
When launched in Jenkins process never ends.

- It works fine in command line.
- It has worked in chrome 37 (It fails since chrome update from version 37 to 
38)

Note that chromedriver is launched. It seems to launch a chrome.exe instance, 
but no chrome child process are run as in command line execution

Steps to reproduce (if relevant, you MUST provide a simplified html page or
link to public site):
=== Configuration ===
- windows server 2008 R2 
- jenkins 1.574
- chromedriver 2.11
- chrome 38.0.2125.104 m
- selenium 2.43.1 (maven GAV : 
                  Group : org.seleniumhq.selenium  
                  Artefact : selenium-java  
                  version : 2.43.1)
=== concept ===
We package a jar that is executed with maven in jenkins
cf java code below : class LaunchQunitTests 

=== Execution : ===
I have copied the commands launched by my class in the process :

chromedriver comand line
C:\chromedriver\2.11\chromedriver.exe --port=34091 
--log-path=c:\.jenkins\jobs\AR_VA_NR_Canvas_Tests\wrk\Tests\SeleniumTestLauncher

-----Other helpful tips:
Attach your chromedriver log with verbose logging enabled (see
http://goo.gl/5Sx8mC for how to do this).

Hi, this looks to be the same issue as the following(and 5 other suspected 
duplicates that I can count):
https://code.google.com/p/chromedriver/issues/detail?id=928

Could you please go vote for that issue? Thanks, we'd all like to see this 
fixed.
