Symptom
The hares -wait command does not work correctly for the IState attribute.
Description
The -wait option is for use in scripts using VCS commands to wait till an attribute
value changes to the specified value. The option blocks the VCS command until
the value of the specified attribute is changed or until the specified timeout expires.
The values for the IState attribute displayed using the hares -display command
or the hares -value command do not work when you use them with the hares
-wait command. The hares -wait command for IState attribute values either
blocks or times out (if the timeout is specified.)
