There is a crash issue induced on cygwin-64 (not on -32) after compilation with cygwin-devel 2.0.0 include files. I am recompiling my editor mined and it crashes, maybe immediately or after typing non-trivial input (like function keys, waiting for input with select()). It does not occur after recompiling only certain source files, but it happens after recompiling only io.c which makes heavy use of terminal I/O like read(), select(), ioctl().
Reverting the cygwin-devel package to 1.7 (and leaving everything else up-to-date) solves the issue. Selective copying of files from the cygwin-devel 2.0 package further reveals: /lib: all from 2.0: no problem. /usr/include/sys: all from 2.0 except the following: no problem. But if signal.h, stat.h, time.h, types.h, and associated dependencies are used, the compiled program crashes. I can try to narrow down the issue further but maybe this is a clue already? ------ Thomas --- Diese E-Mail wurde von Avast Antivirus-Software auf Viren geprüft. http://www.avast.com -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
