Well, I'm getting different results with the latest snapshot. Instead of
getting the error message, I'm getting a hang for maybe a minute before it
continues.
I used the following command to encourage a failure:
clear; for f in $(find */Debug -name '*Subsystem'); do echo === $f ===; strings
$f | grep '\.cpp$' | sort | uniq -c | sort -n; done
9 invocations of this resulted in 3 hangs. During the last such hang,
ps output showed the following (from a 2nd mintty window):

After it completed, it showed the following

Just to confirm I was using the later snapshot:
