Drat... Windows Update decided to install a "critical security fix" last night, and today, Cygwin appears to be 100% dead in the water as opposed to yesterday's 90%. The security fix is supposed to be in Internet Explorer so it might just be a coincidence.
I've attached "strace" output from running "ls". The output is slightly different from previous attempts, because I'd been able to run the postinstall scripts to populate /etc/passwd and /etc/group; but the failure mode appears unchanged, with death following shortly after signals are enabled. The trace is still slightly variable from one run to the next; sometimes I get one or two messages about locks, sometimes not. By the way, this is a dual Xeon workstation, without hyperthreading. -- Dave
