Here's how to reproduce it:
1. install w3m-el
2. start Xwin, and then start emacs with:
emacs.exe -q -l ~/1.el
Cygwin's emacs-*-23.0.92-10 packages don't provide emacs.exe. So you
must be using the version you compiled yourself, unless you somehow have
an emacs.exe left over from a previous cygwin version of emacs. (I
mention this in case someone wants to try to reproduce your problem, in
which case your instructions would fail.)
3. Press M-x w3m in emacs to start w3m
4. Press g in *w3m* buffer, type http://www.cnn.com/ (I use this URL
because it contains many images. A site with few images will not
reproduce this).
5. Press T in the *w3m* buffer to toggle inline images, then Emacs will
segfault. And sometimes it may complain "doing vfork resource
temporarily unavailable" instead of segfault.
I think fork failures are sometimes fixed by rebasing and sometimes
result from http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#BLODA. Have you looked into
either of those possibilities? Beyond that, I have no ideas, but maybe
the experts can see something useful in your gdb output.
