I have ported an application using cygwin. There are many IPC mechanics in this app such as shm and sem. I find that my app causes the ipc-daemon service failed sometimes. Why this event could happen!
Because ipc-daemon, and the cygipc package in general, sucks. (I'm the maintainer, I oughta know). There is a much better foundation for IPC services in the 'cygwin-daemon' code that is part of cygwin. However, it is unfinished, since the primary author dropped out of sight. We desperately need a hero to rescue the cygwin-daemon code and shepherd it to completion.
