Some of my shell scripts on Windows 2000 Server (NTFS partition) seem to be forking 
their commands.
This has the effect of everything in a script trying to run at once, which royally 
screws up dependencies.  This seems to only happen sometimes.  All in all, general 
system behavior is bad.  

Worse yet and perhaps unrelated: when starting a process which forks itself, when the 
controlling window closes, that process dies too (pg_ctl start).  I can't seem to keep 
my database up unless i avoid using pg_ctl.

This seems to only be a problem on this particular Windows 2000 Server computer with 
NTFS partitions.  Everywhere else in the company we use W2K Pro / FAT, and I've never 
seen such weirdness.

Has anyone else noticed behavior like this?  I am using the latest Cygwin.
