I have bash processes that hang sometimes and have been investigating with gdb. I have gathered the output from gdb about an offending process and included below. I am running 1.5.9 of the cygwin dll, I have searched through other postings and in google. Have seen some references to hanging in bash but mostly occurring with rsync or ssh. This is very reproducable for me. Any help is appreciated.
