Can we take this discussion somewhere else? I don't really see how it relates to cygwin. I've already suggested that there are already shells around that do some of what you're proposing. I've already said that, regardless, it would be very unlikely that I will be interested in this for cygwin. Discussions about make -j, the awfulness of fork, etc. really don't have much bearing to cygwin.
