Short story: make is dumping core on me repeatably under cygwin-1.5.9-1.
Things seem a bit unstable.
Should I roll back to an older version of cygwin? If so,
which packages should I roll back?
Long story:
I've been adding cygwin support to http://kegel.com/crosstool
so I can build hetrogenous distcc clusters targeting e.g. Red Hat 6.2.
I have a nice automated shell script to do this;
works great under Linux, and I'm slowly chipping away at the problems
under Cygwin. The latest one is a Heisenbug: a submake crashes,
but only if I don't run it under gdb :-(
One more datapoint: it doesn't seem to crash if I run it
under strace, either.
And no, the machine is not overclocked... it's been quite stable.
For what it's worth, I tried rolling back make and cygwin; didn't
seem to help (but then, I didn't reboot... hey, come to think of it,
isn't it standard practice to reboot when fixing any windows problem?
Guess I'll try again in the morning.)
