Just to be clear: Is this with the recent snapshot?
Yes, this is with the 2012-08-01 snapshot.
I ask because one other "I see something similar" seemed to come from
1.7.16.
I'm almost always running a snapshot, but I can back it out to vanilla
Cygwin or any other snapshot if it helps finding the error. I don't
think I've had any other updates except mesa inbetween switching from
the snapshot I used before and the current one ??? but that is
circumstancial evidence only.
It would be interesting to see if you or Ken have a problem with the
20120730 snapshot.
And, if so, then an strace would probably be useful, although it would
be huge. If you do get one, let me know how to download it or I can
provide temporary storage somewhere.
I do have the same problem with the 20120730 snapshot. I started emacs
in an xterm window, attached strace, and walked away. This time it
didn't take long for emacs to crash, so the strace output isn't huge:
wget http://sanibeltranquility.com/cygwin/strace.out
Thanks. I think I see the problem but I won't be able to get to it
tonight.
It's in the new signal handling code.
I was actually able to duplicate this fairly easy. It took me too long
to realize that I had to run the X version of emacs, when that should
have been obvious from the strace.
I have uploaded a new snapshot which should fix the problem.
Can you confirm Ken?
I'm testing. It looks good so far, but I'd like to get emacs running
without a crash for 24 hours before I'm confident. I'll report back
tomorrow.
I'm also testing to see if the recent changes have fixed the problem
that I was struggling with in
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2012-04/msg00048.html . That also
looks good so far.
Well, fingers crossed, but I'm not aware of anything which would fix what
you describe there.
Everything still looks good, including the version built with gsettings
support. I don't know what fixed the latter, unless maybe it was the
/etc problem. Anyway, thanks to you and Corinna for whatever you did.
Ken
