I'm still seeing some weird stuff in the latest snapshot. This is a fresh install, with nothing other than the Base category + git, and substituting just cygwin1.dll. $ git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/libsigsegv.git Initialized empty Git repository in /home/eblake/libsigsegv/.git/ fatal: write error (Socket operation on non-socket) $ uname -a CYGWIN_NT-5.1 eblake 1.7.0s(0.212/5/3) 20090804 00:31:58 i686 Cygwin Running the above through strace generates more than half a megabyte, but the point where 'errno 108' occurs in the trace is shortly after a call to dup2(3,4), so there may still be some memory corruption impacting the fd table across forks. -- Eric Blake -- 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
