These days, Emacs no longer crashes as often as it used to.
That's good to hear.
So, there's been nothing to report until now. Emacs-w32 hanged
and produced the "do you want to enter debugger" window,
with the following backtrace produced by gdb:
Program received signal SIGTRAP, Trace/breakpoint trap.

Thanks. All I can see from this is that a SIGTERM was generated,
causing emacs to abort, but maybe someone else can see more.
Grasping at straws, as usual, I wonder if these mysterious crashes could
be related to a bug that Corinna just fixed:
https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-cvs/2014-q3/msg00004.html
Corinna, is this plausible? If so, maybe Gustav should try the next
snapshot of the Cygwin DLL. (The current one doesn't seem to have this
fix in it.)
