I got a similar problem and system hangs randomly(esp. in test strings) in win32-mingw. The problem I found is in pgunlink(). There is a potential deadloop in while (unlink(path)) { ... } However, if we wait long enough( I waited for 20 mins or so), the system finally go on. I guess that's because of the hot-long-discussed "win32's inability of removing file-in-use" problem(though FILE_SHARE_DELETE flag is added).
