Running on Windows 8.1, with 32-bit Cygwin v1.7.29. I've taken straces of a problematic area of xemacs, tidied them, and am trying to locate significant differences.
I'm seeing something I don't understand, which isn't causing a crash so probably isn't significant, but I'd like to understand it better. strace 1 has: [main] PID1 sigprocmask: 0 = sigprocmask(2647444, 0xNULL, 0xNULL) where strace 2 has: [main] PID1 sigprocmask: 0 = sigprocmask(2649272, 0xNULL, 0xADDR) Similar lines appear frequently in both straces. Either I don't understand strace output, or this is bizarre -- the first arg to sigprocmask should always be 0, 1 or 2, right? I'd welcome any help in understanding how I should be reading this, and more generally, how I could have found the answer to my question myself. Thanks, ht -- Henry S.
