Tell the list. cmalloc is an internal function to cygwin1.dll, so if there is something that git is doing that uses too much memory (or worse leaks) in 1.7 with its long pathname support, where it didn't in 1.5, we'd like to know what it is so we can fix it, because more than just git would be affected. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
