Hi, I am trying to make use of the UTF wide character support in cygwin 1.7 and tried to give it a shot. Until now I am almost unable to do anything because I constantly run into heap problems, like:
5 [main] ? (5096) D:\bin\cygwin\bin\bash.exe: *** fatal error - couldn't allocate heap, Win32 error 487, base 0x6D0000, top 0x7D0000, reserve_size 1044480, allocsize 1048576, page_const 4096 5 [main] -bash 4312 child_info::sync: wait failed, pid 5096, Win32 error 0 197 [main] -bash 4312 fork: child -1 - died waiting for longjmp before initialization, retry 0, exit code 0x1000000, errno 11 I found in an old email that rebase would help, so I patched rebaseall to make it work with 1.7: 109c109 < grep -E "\.($Suffixes)\$" | --- > grep -E "\.($Suffixes)\$" | grep -v "cyglsa.dll" | grep -v "cyglsa64.dll" I also changed heap_chunk_in_mb to 2048 (decimal) in the registry. $ ./max_memory 5fffe000 bytes (1536.0Mb) Is that a known bug?
