Randomly hang when compiling Cygwin on Cygwin on Wine

2015-10-28 Thread Qian Hong
Dear folks, I try to compile Cygwin on Cygwin on Wine in a loop, and found a random hang. Usually, it happens more than 1/10. The hang could happen in different processes, including `sh.exe`, `gcc.exe`, `as.exe`, etc, but the backtraces are all similar. Here is one example I get now: (1) `pstr
