I can reproduce the problem 1 out of 3 or 4. I also added some
additional debug output for a start:
get_packages()
[...]
for (n = 0; fgets (buf, 4096, fp) && n < nlines;)
{
char *package = strtok (buf, " ");
printf ("(%8ld) %-20s :: %-20s\n",
ftell (fp), package ?: "<NULL>", argv[0]);
[...]
}
printf ("finished\n");
And that's weird, when the problem occurs, ftell(fp) prints the
same offset into the file twice:
[...]
( 502) automake1.8 :: openssh
( 545) automake1.9 :: openssh
( 545) automake1.9 :: openssh
and then the next call to fgets() just pegs out.
The next test was not to call load_cygwin(). In this case, the problem
seems to disappear. I can't reproduce it in 100s of calls.
Next, I call LoadLibrary ("cygwin1.dll") but none of the other
processing in load_cygwin(). Still no problem.
Next, enable the FreeLibrary call. Now the problem reappears.
So it's the FreeLibrary call which triggers the problem. What I don't
understand so far is, why it does.
