This doesn't seem like the standard kind of fork failure that's fixed by
rebasing. For one thing, I'm on 64-bit Cygwin. For another thing, the
error message doesn't refer to being unable to remap a DLL to the same
address as in the parent.
In any case, I did a full rebase, which didn't help. I also manually
rebased the problematic DLL cygSDL-1-2-0.dll to an address below the
previously lowest base address of a Cygwin DLL, and that didn't help either.
I think there's something else going on. It would help if some other
people would try to reproduce the problem. [I assume you already tried.]
